Pros
I worked for DailyPay for years. Initially, it was great, but you could see where the company was headed. The early DP was electric. The previous CEO's enthusiasm and vision were contagious, and the mission was clear. You can point fingers in every direction for recent layoffs and morale, but it was exciting to be part of something that truly was disruptive. We destroyed predatory payday loans. It was a win (employers), win (employees), win (DP employees). It was fun with a purpose. But wait, there's more...
Cons
Everything changed with the new CEO, who has the personality of a manilla envelope. A lot of talented management has already found their wings and split. While it was smart to stop the free lunches and address complaints about paying for rotting bananas, he should have spent more time getting to know his employees before he started slicing and dicing. To make matters worse, his town halls were vague and loaded with marketing cliches - buzzword bingo. Before he cut for the sake of cutting, he could have saved jobs by maybe dumping a portion of the football field-sized office where no one shows up. Or, a few more jobs would have been saved if DailyPay stopped putting its logo on every product known to man. I cannot imagine what they spend on "swag." If you apply here, you won't get paid enough despite claims of being 'competitive.' If you are over 40, good luck - they prefer sheep. It is NOT merit-based. If you decide to work here, be prepared to be in meetings for half your remaining lifespan. DailyPay invented meetings about meetings - utility patent pending. Also, Slack is whack, and you will get pinged to the point of torture.
