Pros

Smart, caring people. Massive long term goals with social and business impact that lead to challenging and meaningful work. Competitive pay, great benefits, excellent team culture.

Cons

Market dynamics have shifted dramatically over the last 5 years along with macro trends in the economy, impact from the pandemic, etc. The company has gone from from growth to hyper-growth and back to growth again in a relatively short period of time. Guild executives have successfully navigated these transitions but not without some tough decisions including changes in leadership/organization and also RIF's. These are difficult decisions that nobody likes to make but they are necessary sometimes and show up in some of the comments on Glassdoor. I have no doubt the company will build on the success it has had over the last 10 years and continue to thrive.

Pros

While Guild has difficulties like any company, the people working here are bright, driven and well intending. The business has seen difficulties but is now innovating in a way that will meaningfully impact growth.

Cons

There has been significant turnover and organization change over the past few years. Solid and consistent leadership is necessary.

Pros

Amazing mission and vision - brings together cool people all working towards the same goal.

Cons

A lot of shady things are happening behind the scenes - they talk a lot about transparency and clarity is kindness, but managers are way more concerned with business leaders than their team. Before I left, 10 members of our small team opened a confidential report on our manager due to unethical and inappropriate behavior. We went through a long process including talking to HR leadership and Employee relations team members. It ended in me and several others of that small group being impacted by a RIf. Our leader is still at Guild and I hear she continues to be shady and inappropriate. Honestly shows they dont truly care about their people, just about the ROI. Only a small few get considered for growth in the organization and leadership LOVES to shine on these 3% like its happening all the time. A ton of bias, a ton of favoritism.
