Credit Karma reviews

-Not convinced we have the right strategy in place. Continuous debate and tension between some of the teams on who's owning what. There has been blaming and posturing that doesn't seem to be taken seriously. -This all starts with your People team. Narcissistic and ego-driven head of people who will only do things that will serve their ego. Unfortunate but true. High level of favoritism. If you are a yes person, you'll do okay. -Promotions across org are not consistent. If you are on a team where leader is close to the "right people" you'll be taken cared of.

As you can tell from the reviews, there's major cultural inconsistency across the organization. Marketing & Engineering teams have ample flexibility while Product, Biz Dev, and Analytics are always stressed out and seem to never leave their desks (do they even eat?). Colleagues are often rude due to being stretched so thin and cross functional solidarity is nonexistent. Lack of experienced, conscious management is also a serious problem. Shockingly, senior managers continue to have the "we had no idea" reaction to new issues and the "ummm... we're still working on it?" answers to old pain points. Pay is over-indexed towards equity and not competitive from a salary perspective. While there's a professional development plan with an annual allotment, actual employee promotion is rare and not on par with other startups in the area. Plan to take a pay cut (no matter your experience or previous position) and stay in your role for at least 2-3 years before even being considered for a promotion.
