PENNYMAC reviews

Work/Life Balance is like a foreign language. If your life is work then you'll feel balanced but if your a regular person they'll burn you out as quickly as they can.

Training is a joke: six weeks of slide decks and half-baked “shadowing” where you often can’t even hear the borrower. You’re thrown in blind and blamed when you sink. • Non-tenure lasts ~3 months. Sounds safe—until your last non-tenured month rolls over and drags down your first three months of tenure. You’re haunted by numbers you had no chance to escape. • Calls are a trap: you can lock as many as you want, but if they don’t fund, you’re accused of “costing the company” thousands. Instead of coaching, you get public shaming. • Leadership is chaos. Some managers hide, others panic, all live in fear. Genuine support is extinct. The culture is built on intimidation, finger-pointing, and fear. • Toxicity is woven into every metric. You can fund loans and still be told you’re failing. The system is designed to chew you up and spit you out. • Upcoming comp plan change—expect to work harder each year for less.
