14 years at firm and opinion continues downward fall
Pros: The Benefits are decent for employees
Cons: Mortgage Banking - There isn't a life/work balance. Consistent 70+ hours per week. Salary is very low. Raises are minimal (2% if any) and bonus is extremely poor even with a meets+ performance rating. Exceeds performance rating is impossible because they will change your manager every few months so you can't prove your skills to anyone. New managers automatically give meets performance ratings so you have no chance to increase your performance rating. Work environment is very bad, culture is very bad-Sr Managers talk very badly about employees behind closed doors. Constant lawsuits and regulatory settlements (in the billions) give the firm an excuse for not staffing appropriately, causing extreme work hours and an excuse for not giving compensation increases to employees while the firm  announces billion dollar earnings for the quarter.  They have an "employee experience" campaign due to an extremely poor employee survey that gives employees ice cream, cookies, paper trophies, so if that's what you're after - you can get it once a year.  If you wan ya company that really cares about their employees, I suggest that you look somewhere else.
