Credit Karma reviews

This is not the place you come to work if you care about your salary. The company was on Techcrunch list for highest paying startups, which was both confusing and offensive to many people who work here as its no secret Credit Karma does not pay competitively. Management is really inexperienced (even running entire departments), constantly touting how great the culture is here and pretty oblivious to how unhappy majority of their team members are. It used to be one of the better places to work but now feels pretty gloomy. I wouldn't be surprised to see many valuable employees walk out the door this year.

As you can tell from the reviews, there's major cultural inconsistency across the organization. Marketing & Engineering teams have ample flexibility while Product, Biz Dev, and Analytics are always stressed out and seem to never leave their desks (do they even eat?). Colleagues are often rude due to being stretched so thin and cross functional solidarity is nonexistent. Lack of experienced, conscious management is also a serious problem. Shockingly, senior managers continue to have the "we had no idea" reaction to new issues and the "ummm... we're still working on it?" answers to old pain points. Pay is over-indexed towards equity and not competitive from a salary perspective. While there's a professional development plan with an annual allotment, actual employee promotion is rare and not on par with other startups in the area. Plan to take a pay cut (no matter your experience or previous position) and stay in your role for at least 2-3 years before even being considered for a promotion.
