Stripe Risk Operations Associate reviews

- Stripe is structurally exploitative to its own employees, by understaffing teams across the board by design. This leads to extreme goals and workload in almost all teams I worked with. It also kills any genuine risk taking or innovation, as folks are regularly stretched way beyond whats somewhat reasonable, in order to keep the lights on or meet basic job expectations. Don't expect to pick up new skills here, but rather do what you already can do at 200%; - Everything moves so quickly, that it's very hard to get more substantial projects off the ground. Enormous technical and policy debt, as problems that require long term work are often started and almost as quickly dropped, as they don't align with aggressive calibration cycles. There is hence little incentive given to employees to question direction, creating a sort of echo chamber effect.

Long inconsistent hours, bonus system is a joke, and manager position wage is not worth it
