Langner's LinkedIn profile said he was "Brought in to turn around and refocus a struggling team, while successfully changing distribution model and culture." The main opinion I heard from the channel was that they viewed Langner and Pascal Houillion, former CEO of Sage North America, as anti-channel. The profile also described Langer's Sage duties as involving a "$300M+ operating budget and 500+ headcount Mid-Market Business Unit across North America, Latin America and the Caribbean." The new gig, owned by operated by Mortgage Bankers" ... "provides SaaS mortgage lending solutions for community banks, credit unions and mortgage bankers." I'm reading the profile as saying PCLender does not make direct loans to consumers and the wording is directly from his employer's web site
