Pros

Generous vacation time, you start with 3 weeks vacation and earn sick separately.

Cons

Bonus plan is nothing compared to market compensations. Guild top executives hide when they are needed most. December of 2019 they had a huge IT crash that wiped out the systems for 2 weeks!! How does that happen at a company of this size ?! Needless to say they displaced alot of families and for Christmas and expected their employees then to work the holidays to make up for the mistakes after they got up and running on a temporary system. Upper management hid during all this!! The branches have a toxic culture that is focused solely on sales. Sales people are allowed to behave in any manner as long as they are bringing in business. They will promise the world and fire you as soon as you don't perform since there is no formal training. There is zero opportunity for advancement unless you are in CA. I would strongly recommend reconsidering taking a position here. The big banks are better to work for!! They are doing mass hiring of inexperienced individuals during this current mortgage boom a layoff will come!

Pros

There are no pros to working here.

Cons

Worst company I have EVER worked for and I’ve been in the mortgage industry for 13 years. They treat their employees like crap and in the 9 months I was there I saw over a handful of people quit and walk out.. I only wish I did that sooner. Take my advice and if you’re looking for a job with this company in the Everett, WA location- don’t walk but run in the other direction.

Pros

Pay is decent? Branch location was nice.

Cons

Branch manager is a slave driver. If anything goes wrong on a loan please believe will be 100% operations fault. 0 accountably will be held for the sales team. But all praises will be given to them. No empathy from this employer for what may be going on in your personal life. And heaven forbid if you separate from the company, expect not to be paid your EARNED compensation once you’re out the door. Once you’re gone you are given the proverbial middle finger.
