Pros

Benefits. Very little cons. Looking back it's hard to remember a day that I felt happy to go to work and proud of the work we did.

Cons

There is so much wrong with this company. They do not stand by their values. They cannot compete with their competitors because they lack customer service. They hired a large amount of under qualified employees and it showed in their dealings with customers. They are so focused on the start up culture that they have no true culture outside of that. Their employees are numbers and they do not pay attention to detail when it comes to employees. As an example, they hire people under 21 but have meetings where they supply alcohol. They were heavily funded by large institutional investors and had no plan in place for when markets would seize up. This reminds me of the pre 2008 lending practices except there is no collateral. They don't care about their employees or their customers. Things don't look good for them as placing value in your employees and your customers are the only ways to have true success when you are not the only supplier of your product.

Pros

I have truly enjoyed my time at Prosper. It is a company that offers genuine opportunities to learn, grow, and take on new challenges within your role. I absolutely love my team, my manager, and find the work itself deeply fulfilling. One of the standouts for me is the leadership. Having come from a previous company where leadership was hesitant to make difficult choices, which led to multiple rounds of layoffs, I have a massive appreciation for how Prosper’s leadership operates. They are willing to make short-term, sometimes unpopular decisions because they prioritize the long-term safety and stability of all employees. It is a huge relief to work for a financially stable organization where I can see myself building a long-term career. Prosper is also one of the most diverse companies I have been a part of. From my perspective, the compensation is very competitive compared to other industry ranges I have seen, and the benefits offerings meet my needs.

Cons

While the leadership makes the right calls for long-term stability, the resulting tough decisions can sometimes be difficult to navigate in the moment, the transparency behind the decisions is super helpful.

Pros

Fast-paced environment, able to directly contribute to company goals Good people who genuinely believe in the mission We regularly hear customer testimonials detailing how we've had a positive impact on their lives Leadership is transparent about company performance Only 2 days a week in the office

Cons

The company performed well in 2025, but we didn't see some benefits return until this year which has caused residual frustration Smaller teams offer less growth opportunity Some mid-level leaders manage up very well Pay is okay, but not competitive with larger tech companies
