Pros

Not one I can mention

Cons

Very micromanaged , no bonus but wants the roll to be production , you have more than one person given you things to do and the person that is suppose to give guidance is rude and doesn't know how to lead . The pay is fairly low for what is required .

Benchmark Mortgage Response

Thank you for your feedback. We are proud to be an employer of choice and yet always look to improve where we can. All of our corporate employees are either eligible for an individual monthly production bonus or a semi-annual bonus that is based on company and individual performance. Our PTO policy allows for four weeks of paid time off after one year of service with us (17 for new hires). The policy accrues each pay period and rolls over at the calendar year if unused, maxing out at 1.5 times the annual accrual rate. Employees may begin using the time off once they accrue it and may go negative in emergencies or sudden illness. In addition, we review base salaries on a regular basis with industry data to ensure our employees are compensated fairly with the market.

I've had the privilege of working at Benchmark Mortgage for more than ten years, and I can confidently say it's one of the best companies I've ever been a part of. As we wrap up celebrating our 25th anniversary, it's clear that the company's incredible foundation has been the key to its success. Benchmark Mortgage is more than just a workplace; it truly is a family. The entire company is dedicated to fostering a positive and supportive environment where employees can thrive. People rave about the company culture and the strong relationships among colleagues. The positive attitude and collaborative spirit make it a joy to come to work each day. I'm proud to be a part of a company that has stood the test of time and continues to thrive. If you're looking for a rewarding career in the mortgage industry, I highly recommend Benchmark Mortgage.

Cons

While we face challenges like any other business, Benchmark's resilience and the dedication of its employees have allowed us to overcome obstacles and emerge stronger. The shared mission to be the best in the industry drives us to strive for best-in-class excellence in everything we do.

Pros

Nothing positive about the company or it's current CEO, Stewart Hunter

Cons

I am former employee at Benchmark Mortgage, I was there for 11 years and for the most part it was great company to work for. But it all changed when Stewart Hunter took over as the CEO in September 2024. One day you are consider "Family" (a benchmark motto) and the next day your are kicked out like 11 years meant nothing to them. Stewart is horrible leader who belittles everyone around him. I've witnessed him call employees "stupid" and "retards" during staff meetings. He's has poor leadership skills and I feel sorry for the current employee who have to put up with him. Everyone around him is afraid of him because he's emotional unstable and lashes out if the answer is not what he wants. So he's surrounds with "YES" people, including ALL of this Executive Team. He has created a toxic work environment. It's not worth applying for a job at Benchmark Mortgage. Also, the company is always being investigated by Federal and State Regulators.
