Started Off Great, Ended Poorly

Pros

- Benefits cannot be beaten - Diverse cultures across teams was great to experience - Compensation was good - Cross pollination was insightful

Cons

- Difficult to have a work life balance when you're asked to work unreasonable amount of hours - No room for career growth or opportunities to learn from past mistakes - There were many cases of miscommunications/poor assumptions made of team members. This led to many cases of office politics, gossip, and poor efforts on management to handle.

Pros

Income potential is good. Benefits are crazy good. (the one thing I miss) There is an attempt to have a cheesy, forced, culture

Cons

Underwriting turn times, no concern over contract close dates Dealing with micromanagement Shady business practices Rates are horrible You can lose your commission for up to 6 months after a closing Even if you produce, if you are not a favorite... they let you know

Thank you for your feedback – we value your insight and are constantly seeking ways to improve our employee experience. We take pride in our engaged, positive workforce – in fact, we were just honored with a Best Place to Work in Kansas City award. It’s true – our "Mandatory Fun" events can feel a bit silly at times but through those shared experiences (BBQs, carnivals, dunk tanks, costumes, crazy-fun parties, tons of food and lots of laughter) many of our employees have found real friendships. That purposeful workplace culture translates to teamwork and collaboration – which fuels us to accomplish big goals as a company and for our borrowers. We are very pleased that our compensation and benefit package was attractive to you. We carefully created a mix of the just right offerings for our employees and their families. That is really important to us. MLOA is ethical and fair to each of our borrowers following the strict and explicit guidelines of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. If you were aware of any business practices that did not meet that guideline, we would remind you of the ability of any employee to report issues directly to our Compliance Officer. We pay commissions in accordance to the CFPB guidelines for Loan Officer compensation. We regret that your time with us was not entirely positive - we do wish you the very best in your career path.
