Waterstone Mortgage Corporation has been named a Top Workplace for 2018 by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. This marks the third year that Waterstone Mortgage has received this recognition as the lender was named as a Top Workplace in 2014 and 2017.
 
“Waterstone Mortgage is honored to be named a Top Workplace,” said Waterstone Mortgage President and CEO Eric Egenhoefer. “Our company would never be what it is today without the incredible people we have here. Their dedication, efforts, and talents have helped the organization grow and succeed over the years.”
