SoFi reviews

Don't expect to be allowed work-life balance by senior management at SoFi. Most of the team works 9+ hours a day, with meetings frequently scheduled at 5pm or later. There's also a distinct "boys club" culture, especially within the Capital Markets team. Many of the employees are older white men who worked in finance previously and they've brought the Wall Street culture with them to SoFi. The company calls itself a startup but the term only applies in how old SoFi is, in all other aspects it's extremely corporate. The only focus is meeting aggressive business goals, which means that nothing else matters (including employee happiness, company culture, company values, etc.).

The job burns employees out by setting goals that are far beyond reach and borderline harassing staff about situations that are beyond our control. They expect us to answer more phone calls than we can emotionally tolerate for hours on end, and don't give us enough time to document our notes. They have also recently cut our pay, but there is a complete freeze on all employee pay increase. When an employee maintains the same position, there is literally no such thing as a raise, regardless of production.
