Context: I work at a mortgage company of around 10k employees. Many employees get a certain amount of “bonus” pay on top of their hourly/salary pay for each loan that is approved. Many people rely on this bonus pay, and frankly the company I work for pays low compared to others I've seen.
Here is the text of email my CEO sent to the entire company this morning:
“First Buffalo; then a church in Southern CA- then a Texas grade school. When is this going to stop? Talk about fixing an environment; we need our country and our laws fixed. This is getting ridiculous.
No…..not getting political here; but we have teammates upset over “how much they make” per loan. Really? Are we serious?
We have sooooooooo much to be grateful for. If thought could personally do something to help this country deal……. would start today.
Anyhow, like (name of employee) mentioned; there is always doors to be opened. Feel like another (company) nonprofit should be started to FOCUS on helping/fixing what is happening in this country.
Sure a bigger deal than how much is paid per loan.”
