Pros

Adam Adoree = Great Sales Manager. The Moorpark Loan Officer Manager, is fantastic and supportive of his loan officers, especially during LO's early training days. Really nice man who knows how to motivate LO's. Great long term, monthly training. Friendly co-worker Loan Officers who help each other inside the office. Good Team of Loan Officers. Best Sales Manager I ever had. Honestly. He will recognize this review, since I was the oldest LO he ever hired in 2019. He truly was a unique manager with incredible motivation skills. I miss him already. If my wife's family health issues hadn't taken me away so quickly, I would have worked for him...for many years. Loan Officers, please apply with confidence. Good Company. Great Sales Manager.

Cons

All phone calls recorded and reviewed for mistakes constantly. Not always fair review. Difficult to remain on daily monitored schedule. Upper management always commenting on daily production without real understanding on the lower levels of Loan Officer struggles.

Tough place to work

Pros

Growing company, probably a lot of opportunity careerwise if you can deal with the culture.

Cons

Old school, whip cracking, mortgage company culture. There are a lot of politics based off of the Countrywide model, an old school guard and "who knows who". Also a select group of people find a way to slide by with limited competence in their area based off of the politics rather than knowing what they are doing.
