      Pros

      I have nothing but positive things to say about the all the people I worked with. The team was very collaborative and supportive of each other. I worked along some of the best people I've ever met in my professional career. Leadership that I directly reported to were all great people who always made me feel valued but it felt as though their hands were tied to when it came to advocating on our behalf on the issues the team would bring to their attention. Things changed quite frequently but I appreciated leadership's ability to pivot quickly when things weren't working but often felt as through my department wasn't taken into consideration when changes were implemented. Benefits were great, lots of PTO, compensation was fair for industry standard.

      Cons

      It's a volatile industry with lots of competition which makes them very susceptible to economic impact. During the time I worked there, there were constant changes in leadership. In addition, there was very little empowerment given to employees which added to a feeling that we weren't trusted to make any decisions at all without approval from higher ups. It often felt like the higher ups making decisions had a fundamental lack of understanding of what our role/function in the company was and a heavy emphasis was given to "productivity" that didn't translate to our daily responsibilities. Their expectations were more aligned with a call center with a focus on just pumping out calls but our success was measured by growth that is impossible to achieve with that mentality. I was unceremoniously laid off along with dozens of others without warning. I wasn't even allowed to retrieve personal belongings from my desk until days later. HR offered no support and has yet to reach out with with anything other than standard off-boarding paper work.

      As always, we value feedback as it allows our business to learn from numerous perspectives. As a company we are constantly striving to find the right balance between associate empowerment and proper governance of our processes and functions. Finding this balance can be especially challenging during economic uncertainty while trying to meet the needs of our external and internal stakeholders. Our HR partners are readily available to support all associates throughout their journey with Koalafi and after. This feedback is a reminder that the path toward an optimal state as a company is always evolving. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. Paul Gilman , EVP

      Pros

      Koalafi has been an incredible learning opportunity for me and I've been able to build expertise in a variety of areas while shaping strategic initiatives for the company. I consistently feel supported and coached (and pushed!) by my amazing leader. The team is highly motivated and full of smart people that are great to work with. Comp and benefits are very good. I feel motivated by the mission of the company to help folks get access to important things that they would otherwise not be able to afford, all while helping them rebuild/repair their credit.

      Cons

      We've had a lot of transition in the past ~year with a CEO departure, interim period, and bringing on a new CEO. That has at times made it harder to embrace our value of "focus on what's most important" as priorities shift. The work is still moving forward but it feels like there's opportunity for increased precision and efficiency.

      Pros

      It is a very positive experience working at Koalafi. I have always felt welcomed by a supportive team that genuinely cared about collaboration and helping one another succeed. The company does a great job of creating an environment where employees feel valued and connected to the broader mission. The work is fast-paced and engaging, with opportunities to develop new skills and gain exposure to different areas of the business. Leadership is approachable and transparent, and there is a strong emphasis on customer experience and continuous improvement. One of the things I appreciate most is the people. My colleagues are knowledgeable, helpful, and always willing to jump in when needed. The culture strikes a nice balance between accountability and flexibility, making it a great place to learn and contribute. Pros: Supportive team, positive culture, meaningful work, approachable leadership, opportunities to learn. Overall: I would recommend Koalafi to anyone looking for a collaborative environment with great people and opportunities to make an impact.

      Cons

      As with many growing companies, priorities can shift quickly, which requires adaptability and flexibility.
