Pros

Great peers to work with! I’ve had excellent managers and leaders but I think this varies depending on department. They have high expectations and goals but times are also exciting here at SoFi. I’m glad I am here and curious to see where things go for this company. They really are trying to make this the best place to work and it feels genuine. Weekly town halls from the leadership team help give visibility to the business and the accomplishments from each team. I would recommend working here, but be ready to work quickly!

Cons

Most the cons for me are the benefits we get. The perks for being a salary employee vs an hourly employee are pretty drastic. As an hourly employee we don’t get the SoFriday 2 PM release benefit which is frustrating when you work on a team that’s 90% salaried employees and you are left working alone for most the day. We also get 15 days off vs salary gets unlimited. I feel like that’s a huge difference. Like others have said no 401(k) match and maternity leave is 2 months. As a company that strives to be the the best they should really look at these and get up to industry standards for the Bay Area at least.
