Castle & Cooke Mortgage Reviews

Pros

Management sees in you what you may not & cheers you on to be the best that you can be. If YOU have the desire to grow, CCM will back you 100%. Work hard, play hard!

Cons

They want me to take vacation & I don’t want to. Lol

Pros

The team work at this company is outstanding. You can reach out to anyone in any team and they know what they are doing. I would recommend anyone who has a mortgage background to come work for this company.

Cons

Not a bad word to say about this company

Pros

Excellent Benefits Competitive Pay Positive Work Environment

Cons

Lack of training across the company.

Pros

As someone who joined the company with zero experience in the mortgage industry and coming from 26 years of the educational field, I have had the most amazing experience with this company and those I work with and have worked with. I have never felt untrained or unheard; I believe that I am successful at my job because of the training provided and all the communication that occurs within the company. If at any time I need help with something, I always feel comfortable reaching out to whomever is the expert in the area I need assistance with. Everyone is willing to assist to get the job done and many work far longer and harder than necessary because they care about the job they do, their co-workers, and what the company stands for. The industry can be extremely stressful at times, but those times feel short lived because the company continually acknowledges all the efforts put forth by their employees; making the occasional turbulent times in this field worth experiencing. I believe that we have some of the most amazing Underwriters, Processors, Managers, Loan Coordinators and all others who make up this company. I am very happy working for Castle & Cooke - an while this may not be the perfect company for everyone, it is the perfect company for me.

Cons

I don't have any cons to report

Pros

I love everything about Castle & Cooke. Our team is truly amazing and feels like a family. There is always something new to learn, no situation is the same. Most training, especially for processing, is "on the job". Every situation is unique and you learn as you go. Processors are so important Castle & Cooke, we are essentially Jr. Underwriters. We gather and verify ALL borrower and property docs to submit to underwriting. It is so gratifying to submit a complete file to underwriting and get a one-touch! (Meaning we aren't missing or need to fix anything!) I came here with ZERO mortgage experience. I learned quickly by asking questions and putting in a lot of time and work. Every department, manager, and co-worker is always will to help and answer questions or brainstorm solutions. The opportunities to progress and advance are endless here. There are so many departments you can learn and do and they promote from within. Also, there are so many female VP's and managers here. It is awesome to see! I have not worked for any companies like this. I've also never worked for a company that is so big on positive reinforcement. Even for the tiniest of wins I hear "good job", "nice catch" "you got it!". It's amazing to be constantly built up and appreciated for doing your job! Don't get me wrong, I don't feel entitled to that treatment, but it makes ME feel really good to hear these things. I feel valued, appreciated, and encouraged. I am extremely satisfied in the part I play to help people finance their homes.

Cons

Of course it would be nice to have super detailed training, but it's so hard to do. I've been working on training steps since I started and I'm already at 50+ pages. You really just need to learn as you go. And there are soooo many resources provided to us to answer question we may have.

Pros

They promote quickly, and do not hold you back if they think you would do good for a certain position.

Cons

No opportunity for bonuses and merit based pay increases in my position. I have only received a cost of living raise, or raises with job title changes. Because of this, it does not make it easy to stay here for a super long term, when there are other companies offering better more competitive wages.
