Pros

I've worked at lots of places and CMG is definitely one of the best cultures you will find. Other large companies like to force values down your throat and encourage leaders to constantly give feedback (which is like a seagull crapping on the employees when done too much). But CMG is not like this. It's a relaxed and human-like environment. For developers, there's less emphasis on being around during regular business hours and more emphasis on just getting the work done and doing a good job. I've only been with the company for 60 days, but so far I love it.

Cons

The code base and data base we're working with is very spaghetti-fied. I think the site I'm working with was handed down to us from some other company and I don't know what they were smoking at the time. Not only that but I have to program in a language that is officially dead. Fortunately, that's temporary.

Pros

I have spent more than 3 decades in the mortgage industry, CMG is definitely in the top 3 mortgage companies I've worked for. Ops is lightning quick, compensation is solid, the product variety is the best I've seen including amazing proprietary programs, benefits are reasonable, there really isn't anything more I could ask for. Every aspect is at least good, if not world class!

Cons

None I can think of

Pros

There are a ton of opportunities to innovate and build industry-changing technologies. We have a great product team and a great engineering team, so the possibilities for my team and me are endless. We're also serious about using AI across product management, BSA work, QA, and engineering. It's part of our culture, and the transformation is being led directly by our technology leaders, which shows they're hands-on and lead by example. You won't find many places where a top leader is this invested in transformation and in the details, and that's both encouraging and energizing for our team. On the business side, there's a lot of flexibility and support for our sales and fulfillment team members. Ideas are heard and implemented no matter who they come from. Our leadership team is humble, and they genuinely care about and understand their business. They've been very welcoming and have taken the time to help me understand their business needs so I can deliver the right solutions. CMG believes in top-notch customer service and in offering a comprehensive suite of products that most other companies don't have. The culture here is great and genuine, and I'm very glad I made the choice to join CMG.

Cons

Opportunity to standardize process and create an enterprise fulfillment strategy, currently in the works and planned for the immediate future.
