Countrywide Home Loans Reviews
-
Pros
Good salary. Overpaid for amount of work that is required of you! They could hire high school kids for alot of jobs at a lot lower pay but they help keep industry averages up with the salaries! good for Alot of peon positions!
Cons
No one knows what is going on. 3 of us started a week ago and were already let go today!!! Nothing to do. Said they are overstaffed after hiring all 3 of us. I actually had a job I loved that I left for this that was supposed to be temp to perm in 2 months. How stupid was I in this market and economy!!! Marketing material all says Bank of America now but it is the same old Countrywide!!! Still very outdated system and technology compared to other leaders in industry! Customer Service is rude to people! No training programs in place for any positions. Higher pay for this market but remember "money does not buy happiness" or job security.
Advice to Senior Management
Up-date technology. Update hardware and systems. Get managers that have some knowledge. Lower level employees know more than"leader" or whatever they are calling them this week. Overstaffed-employees could do alot more than they are assigned to. Basically lazy attitudes.
