Maxwell Claimed Company
Maxwell was founded in 2015 by homebuyers who were shocked by the complexity and inefficiencies of the mortgage process for borrowers and lending teams alike. We’ve created a platform that has not only streamlined the process and made it more efficient - closing loans 45%+ faster - but has made mortgages more accessible in the process. Our mission is clear: democratize mortgage by helping lenders work more efficiently and stay compliant while eliminating the barrier to entry and the stress for the borrower. We are a company focused on a supportive, diverse, and inclusive culture - live through our values of Rigor, Ownership, Curiosity, Kindness, and "Straight Up" - to bring equality to the mortgage process and spread financial empowerment. read more

Communication! They are always very proactive about communicating what's happening with the business and our future objectives.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Review from Customer Support Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

While I am truly enjoying the work that I do, the scope of my responsibilities far exceeds what was communicated to me during the hiring process. I'm being compensated for a role that was set at a much narrower-scope than what I am actually doing. I would have negotiated a different title and pay.

No one actually values my opinion or the opinion of anyone else on the staff.

Review from Operations Dept

more defined compensation plan, clearly laid out.

Review from Sales Dept

I feel my compensation should me more when comparing what other companies pay for similar jobs.
