Pros

You get PTO right off the bat

Cons

DO NOT APPLY TO THIS COMPANY/CULT! THEY MESSED UP MY MENTAL HEALTH. I HAVE SEVERE ANXIETY FROM THIS COMPANY/CULT. Let's start, they will make you work 10+ hours/day and MICRO Manage every second of your life. They will blast you in fron of everyone if you're struggling with your numbers. Your Leader is most likely a 25 year old trying to impress his bosses by micromanaging the F out of you. If you're more than 5 minutes in the rest room your phone will blow up with texts from your leader "Where are you, what are you doing?" They expect you to put 10 to 12 hours a day and give you a 30 minute break. Like WTF? Where's the humanity? You get paid less than $10/hour and rob you from your overtime pay. They found a loophole where they payless after 40 hours. They MAKE Billions yet don't pay you a percentage from the loan like every other broker. I sold over 11 loans and got paid $1,000 in commission. If I sold those 11 loans at a brokerage I would've made at least $20k in commission. Run guys, apply for a brokerage, you'll make a LOT more and less time spent as a slave. It's true, they call themselves a BIG FAMILY, BIG RED FLAG RUN!!!

Pros

The other individual contributors/peers are generally smart and really great. Especially those that have been there for a few years. Generally, RKT does a good job at hiring wonderful people.

Cons

Where to start. Forcing team members back into the office in the middle of a pandemic and threatening their job if they say they're not comfortable. Terrible leadership that doesn't actually care about the team members as people. Leadership is full of big egos (that are mostly not deserved). The culture at RKT used to be wonderful (for the most part, though not perfect), but after going public it went straight down the drain. Benefits were good before the pandemic if you were in the office, but over the years they stripped more and more benefits and now they definitely don't compare. They want to say they're "a tech company" but don't want to make the necessary changes to benefits or pay to actually be competitive in that space. That leads us to pay, which is abysmal in all roles. They are not competitive at all and they overwork you so much that you don't realize how underpaid you are until you take a moment to look around and realize you can leave to make 50-80% more ANYWHERE else. Also, you have terrible work life balance and you're not appreciated for going above and beyond unless you're a white man. The sexism is real in this place. It's not blatant, but it is there. Diversity and Inclusion is a lie, that team has shrunk in the past few years, and all they do in this space is just for optics. Nothing really changes.

Pros

The culture is great and like most companies, they were able to provide me remote work throughout the pandemic.

Cons

After years of "being taken care of" around the holidays, whether that's a holiday party or a Christmas bonus, that has changed this year. There was nothing awarded for hours and hours of hard work and effort this year. For what I do, the pay is not equivalent to the amount of time and effort I have put into this position. Zero value shown for the work that has been done across the company. I would not recommend this company.
