Pros

Great benefits and co-workers. Company-paid medical premium for you & family, unlimited PTO (theoretically), lunch stipend, pre-IPO equity

Cons

Hours are very demanding and operations is almost always understaffed. Unlimited PTO is great for those who can use it, but often understaffed and always busy means there's never a time to be out of the office. Company also targets salaries below market rate, claiming equity compensation and bonuses make up for it, but the reality is if you rely on your paycheck you may be happier elsewhere.

First and foremost, thank you for the time you dedicated to working at SoFi. While we are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the benefits we offer employees, and loved your co-workers, we're disappointed to hear you did not feel your compensation package was competitive and that you didn't feel you had work/life balance while you worked here. We value all of our employees and want them to know that their health and wellbeing should always come first. We have quite a few resources to support our employees' mental health and burnout during these challenging times. Additionally, we frequently review employee compensation to ensure it is fair and competitive based on external market data. Please know that we share comments like yours with leadership so we can continue to set SoFi up for success in the future. Thank you again for the review. If you would like to continue the conversation, we encourage you to reach out to us at glassdoor@sofi.org. Best of luck in your future endeavors!
