Pros

Good Medical Benefits, 401K. I had a great set of co-workers to work with. Sales are good and there is a nice backlog.

Cons

Low Starting salary which is not reflected in the Salary section on Glass Door. No training on process or procedures. Cam West was bought by Toll Brothers 3yrs ago and transition has been extremely difficult. Senior Management set's building schedules and under staffs the field. I chose Toll Brothers to switch my career path due to being offered the ability to build Quality Executive Homes. This did not materialize. Management settles on the lowest bidder, cheapest materials as well as "Production" schedules which are ineffective. You can shine at review time and yet if your not "One of the Gang" be overlooked for bonus or promotion. I witnessed a Senior VP throw his hardhat across a vacant lot, throwing a temper tantrum like my 6yr old. Unimpressed with the Seattle Division. Cannot recommend for a career choice. Finish the Land Development first, then start the homes.

Pros

You are in the field, working with the parent company, Toll Brothers.

Cons

TBI Mortgage's upper management is run by sadists, only worried about their own jobs. Felt like area reviews were meant to break down and humiliate instead of looking for good ideas. No input on the people working under you, but you are judged on their performance. No concept of it is like to work in the field. Horrible experience, don't ever work there. You will need to start taking anti depressants or Xanax every day.

Pros

It's hard to think of a pro here. I would say the only pro is that you have a constant stream of business coming in from the builder (Toll), however that pro turns out to be a con. "Toll wants their cake and to eat it too" Benefits are fair to good.

Cons

Too many chiefs, very top heavy with too many senior management roles. Old school mentality. Technology challenged. Isn't run like a mortgage company. Comp plans are unfair. Too much ego, not enough "get-it-done" attitude. Turnover is outrageous, over 50% this year alone. They feed lies to their employees and give false expectations to any new hires. You have been warned!
