Pros

Good incentives to work hard via bonus tiers.

Cons

Company put entire department (about 200 employees) on unpaid furlough with zero warning. Had a meeting and told to stop working immediately and would find out if our jobs were still there after 2 months. Told it was due to mismanaged budget.

Pros

Decent starting salary in comparison to some other places.

Cons

Requirements not industry standard and their quality reviews are a joke. Things such as duplicate documents in the file at the time of your initial review instead of something that could cause your file to be unsellable. Management makes you feel like you are expendable. The process is LO>UW>LP so as an uw you are wasting the majority of your time reviewing awful files that need a lot of correcting, removing duplicate documents and shouldn't have ever made it to underwriting.
