Pros
Good mortgage products, tech, and loans do close on time. There is help for those who are remote and who focus on self-generated production but it does not come at the branch level.
Cons
Though I only worked at Churchill Mortgage for only six months I can honestly say this; I have never been more disappointed in a company and it's Management than Churchill Mortgage. What surprised me the most about Churchill Mortgage is that don't hide the fact they take a faith-based approach in most everything they do. Yet in practice, this simply isn't the case or it certainly wasn't my experience. There is no empathy, no understanding because put simply it's about closing loans. So say what they might Churchill Mortgage does not practice what it preaches. Because this is a faith-based organization I did feel a bit uncomfortable with all the religious overtones. It wasn't uncommon to receive scripture almost on a daily bases. I was asked to support an alt right religious group who I fundamentally disagreed with. Wasn't any pushback when I didn't but I shouldn't be asked to support such a group. I do wonder if they knew my religious beliefs were different from theirs if I would have been treated as an outsider. One thing is for certain I wasn't about to let them know. While there is help for those who focus on self-generated production the help doesn't come at the branch level. You are responsible for all your own marketing cost which can both become costly and really slows your production if you haven't the money to spend. Branch managers are more focused on in-house loan officers and will let the remote LO's fail without any real input of advice on how to succeed within the Churchill Platform. Even when asking directly for help it all fell on deaf ears. I do truly believe if I were at the branch and not remote I would have had much more success and not departed as I really had planned to make Churchill my last stop. But ultimately it's just a sales job.
