Why do you love working at Essent?
Love is a strong word but I can honesty say that I love working for Essent. In my professional career, I've worked for numerous organizations. Besides the military, I never felt the sense of accomplishment and pride that I have when I end my workday at Essent. I work with a great team, I'm consistently being challenged, and I've learned so much already. It feels like home at Essent and I'm thankful for the opportunity that I been have given. I look forward to the adventure ahead.
How does Essent celebrate successes?
Besides the breakfasts, the picnics, and team building events; a fist bump, a high five, or a simple good job are ways we celebrate success. Honestly, the strength and growth of the Essent team and the organization is a consistent reminder of our success, no celebration needed.
What makes Essent different from other companies in the industry or other companies you have worked for?
Essent offers such a positive work environment that everyone can be open and honest with each other when working towards the greater good of the company. It's quite inspiring and motivational.
