Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. Good products. Genuine CEO that provides transparency and cares about employees and customers. Permits full-time work remote. Weekly check-in with direct manager designed to help the employee steer the career path. Permits internal transfers, promotes internally, and re-evaluates pay according to market cap when considering promoption. Provides other compensation and awards depending of performance.

Cons

Fast moving. Lots of information. Drinking from a firehose at times. Heavily regulated by industry; trainings, compliance, and so on. Cons are honestly not much different than most companies. It really comes down to the people and not the company, if we're being honest.

We often hear that working at the intersection of autonomy and impact make SoFi a really dynamic place to work. We hear you on the speed at which we work...helping to transform an antiquated industry means we have to move fast to stay ahead of the competition and continue to meet our members needs. That said, we don't want this speed to come at the expense of your work/life balance. We're excited to roll out new initiatives this year related to our new SoFi Cares program, focused on the wellbeing of our employees. Stay tuned for more details.
