Pros
- Cool office space - Nice cafeteria - Fast growth - Great coworkers
Cons
- Diversity: The diversity in this company has improved since I've started working here but is still predominantly white males. - Inclusion: It is very obvious that upper management doesn't know the difference between diversity and inclusion. Examples: A barber shop was constructed in the office, almost every company event is golf related, the Juneteenth event had to be organized by an employee rather than the company (a loan officer shouldn't have to be the one to organize this, the CEO/upper management should care enough to plan something). - Benefits: The 401k match is poor, the amount of PTO you get is pretty low, you don't get any sick days. - Stress and Anxiety: You feel like you're married to your job, have to work overtime practically every day just to feel like you aren't drowning in work, production expectations are astronomical, they pile on the work load but expect you to produce the same amount. - Frat house feeling: As previously mentioned, women are greatly outnumbered. This company is 90% males fresh out of college. - Management: Very clear favoritism. If you report something to HR, there is a likely chance the manager will retaliate (you will get demoted, fired, ignored). Individuals are promoted to management positions with 0 management experience. Titles really don't mean anything, the "AVP"s of departments are typically just as clueless as anyone else on their team. - Numbers based: People who produce crap work get praised, those who produce amazing quality of work are rarely recognized. Quantity > Quality is the only thing upper management cares about, and then wonder why there are post closing issues.
