Pros
The pay was great but then again it was during the boom in 2020. All banks were paying stellar amount of money for underwriters. Loved the people I worked with. Most of the loan officers were good. However, a handful of them has god complexes and think underwriters are supposed to just do what they say. Even if it means they will lose their job and do unethical underhanded things.
Cons
When work slowed down all the new people are always the first to go. Doesn't matter how much you work for them you will not be rewarded. A lot of nepotisms and favoritism in the company more than average! During that boom there was absolutely no work life balance just work. Don't expect any pay raises. Not much diversity as far as minorities in the company. If your a minority expect to be the first to be let go. I would say it's a fair work place for women more than other companies. The company forces you in an indirect way to do overtime off the clock. They would give you so much work knowing that you can't possibly do in an 8 hour day. Then say don't work off the clock. But if you don't complete your work they threaten to terminate you.
