Nepotism at the top

Pros

free meals and beautiful offices located in the Presidio. Despite the quick growth and recent departures from long time employees, great camaraderie persists among employees

Cons

Poor lack of communication and transparency from the top down. A lot of favoritism and nepotism is played by senior leaders. The place has a boiler room atmosphere to it and they keep on churning out half baked products.

Pros

Free lunch with beautiful view of Golden Gate, fun/outgoing coworkers and good benefits. Mike Cagney the CEO is a good guy as well.

Cons

I cannot speak for the rest of the company, but in the Loan Operations department they will work you to the bone and spit you out. They frame the work/life balance as a way to make "unlimited money" but they fail to mention that this overtime is mandatory & keeps increasing...even after many attempts to point out the toll it takes on their employees. The minimum work week is 50 hours. I truly felt like a cog in the machine where no one valued the individual talent that I (or my colleagues) brought to the table. All about the numbers....to the point where managers told us to "stay in our seats" and "stop talking to one another." I had more freedom in high school and college!
