Pros

Good benefits, 401k match, direct management is fine

Cons

Senior management and higher do not know how to read the room. We are drowning in due dates being last minute constantly and all they seem to care about is RTO that’s pointless when we don’t even need to interact much with each other, plus everyone lives in multiple different areas. For them wanting us to RTO so badly, they don’t care about us losing out on salary with the cost of traveling and still give terrible raises that aren’t even equal to cost of living and losing out each year due to that with being behind in raises constantly. Getting promoted is near impossible since there is too much competition and when you ask for additional work you get ignored to try to get that criteria to move up. Also, CRO seems more interested in his investments over the wellbeing of employees

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.
