Pros

Great DE&I Initiatives. Work/Life Balance is great at times; nobody is emailing you late at night and expecting you to answer or respond. Offices are at the T-Mobile Campus which offer a lot of amenities; outdoor seating, cafe's, and an amazing gym that is free. There are some amazing people that work here.

Cons

Poor pay compared to competitors. They do not care if you had any prior experience in another field, or an advanced education. You'll start out entry level. Which can be a good thing or bad. Tracking software that is used as a performance and punitive metric. (bonuses, work schedule, upward mobility). Poor leadership that lacks self-awareness and communication. Upward mobility is poor; you MUST go through the appropriate designations to make more money. Although it is a Hybrid schedule, upper management does not like it in the slightest. Hence why there is tracking software. Do your research if you want to work within the servicing office of KeyBank out of Overland Park, KS. The work load can be a lot at times, taking on more responsibility does not in any way mean you'll make more money or move up within the company. It is very basis-less work. You are servicing the debt of clients that just want to make more money and provide value to shareholders. That is it. Although you are required to come into an office, you'll find its quiet and not many people talk to each other.

Pros

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Cons

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
