Countrywide Financial – “My department is in limbo.”

Pros

The best reason to work for Countrywide is the possibility of working in a newly created position at Bank of America. There are department transfer opportunities that I have taken advantage of to build more skills and knowledge.

Cons

Countrywide has been known as a sweat shop by employees and headhunters. Each year employees contribute more from their paychecks for decreasing benefits.

Advice to Senior Management

Senior management should show more appreciation and give raises that at least match the rate of inflation to their employees.
