Pluspunten

Not many that I can think of.

Minpunten

If for some reason this company is hiring again, do not apply. At Lower, not only is there is a lot of micromanagement, how well you perform is all for nothing since you will likely be laid off anyway. They will celebrate top producers days before cutting their jobs. It’s all a facade to get you to work harder. Mass layoffs have become the norm while the company is spending millions on a Crew stadium sponsorship. Lower cares little about its employees and much more about its bottom line. I really hope this company doesn’t survive the mortgage industry downturn. Of course, they will continue to blame the industry when in reality, the ineptitude of management is to blame. Do yourself a favor and go work at a better mortgage company.

Pluspunten

There are limited pros working at Lower. Based on my experience, I would only recommend working here if you're new to the industry. Get licensed, learn the basics, and leave after a year.

Minpunten

If you have been in the industry for more than a year, you know products, you know guidelines, you know how to sell. That said, find a company with a comp plan that makes sense with a rate sheet that actually benefits the consumer. Ironically, rates at Lower at the Highest in the industry. You'll be asking borrowers to take on a 30-year-fixed -rate mortgage that's 50bps (or more) higher than the industry. On top of the higher pricing, you get paid a fraction of what other loan officers make. Instead of $20K/mo commissions, you'll be making $3K at best. The hourly rate is a recoverable draw so you're making $60K while other loan officers are making $200K+ per year. If that wasn't enough, your loans will sit in process FOREVER. No one knows what's going on. From VP to processor, there is zero communication. Loans will fallout left and right.
