Pros

* Lots of new expertise * Plenty of great people to work with * Still small enough to not have too much bureaucracy * Noto is an amazing leader

Cons

* Many new people come from large corps like Amazon * The wrong team will cause you to burn out fast * Starting to feel very "coprorate"

Hi! Thanks so much for the review, and for the time you spent working at SoFi! We are helping to transform an industry that hasn't changed in decades, and while it can be fast-paced, this environment is creating SO many opportunities for our employees to learn and grow. Change does seems to be the only constant and we acknowledge that type of environment isn't for everyone, but we hope you were able to see the direct impact your work had on the organization. Thanks again for the review, and for working with us! We wish you the best of luck in your next role - take care.
