Pros

There were many great people working at Lending Club at one point. Some of the best people I have ever worked with. Intelligent people, with low ego that worked hard, and that were fun to work with. If you are looking for an entry level job, one that you can stay with for 1-2 years. This is a ok place to be. But if you are looking for anything beyond a just a gig, stay away

Cons

- Lots of great people are no longer working at Lending Club. - Managers who lack technical experience, and play favorites - You will need to have top notch ability to navigate company politics.

Pros

New office, new name, same great company. Good growth opportunity where you can see your impact.

Cons

Not a huge con, but better snacks or catered lunch would be a plus.

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.
