Finding the Right Solutions
Debt happens. A primary goal Countrywide has is to help people make a molehill out of a mountain of accumulated credit card balances. Our professionals are not there to embarrass somebody or criticize spending habits. We put a great deal of emphasis on empathy.
Countrywide has created a network of financial wellness counselors to provide help to plan members. These are professionals who have worked with issues of credit card debt. What they will do with a plan member is develop a means by which an existing credit card problem is minimized. This may include a strategy of consolidating certain card debt, paying off smaller balances, and establishing payment plans that do not accidentally result in bank over draws.

Unused employee benefits are a waste of time and money. Employers know this and they want to make certain that every new benefit provides substantial return on investment. To help employers make the right decisions, Countrywide allows decision-makers to choose. We have a number of options but they all do not have to be part of the plan document. Decision makers can look at the demographics of the respective workforces and decide which option should be part of the plan. This means a better chance that the program will be used by employees.
Realistic expectations also have to be considered. The days of somebody working twenty or more years for one employer are gone; people move on depending on career opportunities. Management should try to convince people to stay for at least five years. A financial wellness plan can be very persuasive. We encourage decision makers to contact us about our services. Countrywide appreciates any inquiry and all questions are answered completely.
