Pros

Salary and bonus high when compared to the light workload, team members below Director level are extremely collaborate, very professional and respectful culture, open to working for home.

Cons

Very few have real experience in financial services, making it impossible to develop solutions for saving a sinking ship, remains very political despite being in conservatorship; VPs and SVPs have no incentive to foster change, lot's of talk by this group, but little action, most are Washington fat cats making a lot of money.

Pros

Great team and luckily for me great leadership in my direct line up to my SVP.

Cons

It’s horrifying how things have changed since Pulte took over. Layoffs, elimination of entire job categories but not the responsibilities of those jobs. It’s not just you work more because a teammate is gone, it’s do a completely different job while still doing you job plus all of your layed off coworkers job.
