Pros

Competitive pay, some departments offer upward mobility. Some managers are truly skilled and actually develop their people. I made some great friends from other departments who are still my friends today. The company provides many benefits and perks to employees. Some departments are much better than others.

Cons

My manager was awful. Nearly all my coworkers disliked this person's coaching style, and when I brought this individual's behavior to the attention of HR, I was told that his or her "parenting" demeanor was something our department needed. I have never worked with a more unprofessional, condescending and non-compliant manager in my entire adult working life. One week prior to being separated from my employment from LendingClub, I was asked to verify the accuracy of my work off the clock by this person. I was asked to do unpaid time if I wanted to keep my job. When I brought this to the attention of HR, NOTHING was done and I never received any sort of follow up to this report.

Pros

Decent starting pay and some good teammates. The company is highly profitable and continues to grow. Opportunities to take on new responsibilities and expand your scope. Equity awards.

Cons

Over the course of several years, I have been given additional responsibilities multiple times without more compensation despite the company’s strong financial performance. While I’m happy to contribute, the pattern of increasing responsibility without recognition is a major demotivator, even to your most diligent employees. It's tiresome. It doesn't take much effort to make strong contributors feel seen and valued, and it's such a missed opportunity not to. The company frequently talks about culture and values, but there is infighting and rivalries between teams and individuals. That energy creates drama instead of collaboration and leads to repetitious mistakes. Good people — especially top performers — eventually leave because they can.
