Pros

Great coworkers that you want to spend time with, pretty good benefits, and a good stepping stone into a career in start ups. I also liked the mission. It is important.

Cons

I am writing a review because I know I took to Glassdoor to make a decision about a company and I think you should know what you are getting into. They have set work hours with a "butt in seat attitude." The more time you spend in office the more noticed you are by upper management. If you aren't in office long hours it can work against you. A lot of teams are in office before 8am. They don't have development plans for employees and have challenges with management that is larger ignored. They don't have a clear ability for promotions because they don't have set positions. They also have several management employees that have been reported to HR but no actions have been taken against them. Several full teams of employees have left due to management around the same time and they having mostly been hiring backfill positions for them which is why it seems like they are "growing" at this time. I think their is a reason they have so many open jobs, turn over is high at everfi because they do pick favorites and promote a few and their is little to no opportunity for movement upwards or opportunity for salary growth. If you join everfi you will have to teach yourself most of your job skills and network in order to move up. Visibility is key. Also, keep in mind some departments are better then others. If you see a lot of jobs open in one department I would start to look into why and reach out to former employees.
