Overall, great place to work

Account manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I get to work remotely. They have a good retirement plan/401K. I work autonomously with very little oversight, meaning there's no micromanaging. They are great with holidays and time off. Very inclusive and socially aware. Those are two reasons I've remained employed by them.

Cons

The salary is lower than preferred. I've worked two years with zero pay increase because "no pay increases for remoter employees". The health insurance is lacking and not fantastic, but I'm not sure that's really a con since nearly every health insurance plan in America is lacking.

Frequently lays off remote workers, regardless of performance

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Great work/life balance - Awesome coworkers - Lots of opportunities to try new things and be innovative

Cons

- Senior leadership does not value remote workers and doesn't get to know them/engage with them - Frequently lays off remote employees, regardless of performance, achievements, or job role, sometimes without offering options to move or relocate. They also on occasion use underhanded tactics to pressure remote employees to leave so they don't have to pay out severance. Lastly, unless required by your state's law, they never pay out your remaining time off - If you start underpaid, you will remain underpaid even after promotions - Job performance does not impact yearly bonuses/increases. Pay doesn't keep up with inflation

Pros

Growth opportunities, A feeling of working with family. Pay structure and monthly incentive is comparable in this market.

Cons

This will vary on your personal desires and needs. I have not experienced any cons that Newrez is accountable for. The industry has moments of pressure and in the mortgage business... we roll with the punches.
