Pros
Before my eyes were truly opened up, I was just happy to work for a company that hired a lot of young, inexperienced people who were fun to work with. They provided us with SO many snacks, etc. The base salary was originally $36,000 for loan officers which was pretty nice.
Cons
Where do I begin? Not only is Corey Leonard a ticking time bomb, he had punched a hole in the wall, threw something heavy through the plastic window in one of the cubicles, etc. He always played favorites and only gave good leads to certain loan officers he went out to go drink with. It was an extremely unprofessional environment, absolutely no training, putting through terrible loans, etc. Business had slowed down around October 2016 but Corey reassured us on numerous occasions that he was not going to let anyone go and that business would pick up. However, out of NO WHERE, he called a meeting on February 15, 2017 and announced the company was closing. This was a lie. He wanted to see who would stick around and clean up his mess. About 10-15 employees stuck around and got to be paid off every other loan officer's hard work while we were left without a job. Corey likes to hire unexperienced, naïve college kids who don't realize he is running a terrible business model that he refuses to change. He collects his earnings and lays everyone off when things die down. BE AWARE- there are so many other reputable lenders to work for! I would not recommend this company to anyone. HR also begs employees to write good reviews, so be careful!!
