Pros

Amazing people. I loved my coworkers. Convenient location downtown SF. Mostly great managers. They try to do a lot of employee engagement and the PTO is great. Standard for the Bay Area, but better than most places in the country.

Cons

The pay, of course. It's hard to survive in the Bay Area for around $50K, Also the internal system is awful. A lot of things are manual so it leaves room for a lot of representative errors and angry borrowers.

Pros

I suppose the pay was higher than the market rate, but other than that, I really struggle to come up with any positive about my experience at LC

Cons

-Coworkers were generally pretty unfriendly. On my first day, I remember asking questions and was generally met with a "why are you bothering me" look. This did not improve over time. -My direct manager was all over the map. One day he wants this; another day may be something completely different. No direction or feedback was given until it became an issue. -Lots of internal fighting.

Pros

Opportunities to improve the systems. Management will listen to your ideas and recommendations. They will motivate you to work hard to help them achieve those results. They will take away all your recognition though and make themselves look better in front of their bosses. In short you won't get the credit for your ideas, recommendations and everything you did to make them work.

Cons

- Hard work doesn't pay off. Some people get promoted out of the promotion cycle without any announcements and some don't even when they have met all the promotion criteria. - Bosses take away all the credit of your hard work, ideas and recommendation to get themselves get promoted. - You can only take time off for 2 weeks at a stretch if you are in technology. This wasn't disclosed at all when I joined the company. - All the assurances given during the interview process are fake. For e.g. You will get promoted if you perform at so and so level and achieve so and so results. Soon you will see that even after you have done so well for the company, you won't get promoted.
