      Lot of internal politics, people building own resumes than working for corp success

      Pros

      Used to be great company till the COO change. Customer care and success went to the drain. Lucky with the interest growth environment keep them going.

      Cons

      Constant change in leadership and directions will exhaust you. New leaders do not trust long term SVBers and leadership don’t care on what’s going on.

      Pros

      Organizationally, growing fast. In my experience, immediate supervisors try to live the corporate values. Our values - Start with Empathy, Act with Integrity, Embrace Diverse Perspectives, Take Responsibility and Learn & Improve - they are all great. I think my business unit tries to espouse them. Pay is good Organization is embracing a remote workforce model (for many if not most positions) Career opportunities are plentiful. You can really grow here.

      Cons

      Growing too fast. This results in chaos (across business units not just mine). Processes and governance for example- haven't been focused on in the past. Now they must be, and management is "scrambling", which translates to workers are scrambling, to put them in place. This has an effect on work/life balance.
