Business Outlook

Pros

- Fast growing businesses - Above average benefits - Decent office, free food and snacks - energetic CEO and weekly all hands

Cons

- Nepotism to the core and highly politicized. You need to be in the “special circle” to access opportunities / be heard - Pathetic C level new hire in certain area, who has near-zero EQ and keen on alienating existing talent in every possible way. Unfortunately seems to have CEO’s backing! - Totally ineffective or incompetent HR. They seem incapable of containing massive attrition caused by the C level change - BUs pushing for growth at all costs.., may not be sustained for long and questionable downturn -readiness

Business Outlook

Pros

Some good senior business leaders. Nice lunch benefit; some good non-senior people too, but healthy quality people leave as quickly as they can (unless they have a major financial incentive to stay).

Cons

Very disorganized, overly political, petty and insecure workforce -- people focused on the wrong things like job titles, influence, appearances, who gets a window seat and trying to make leadership personalities happy. Manipulative employees seem to thrive, while healthy and visionary people just leave the organization. The mission (transforming financial services) it preaches isn't in line with the reality on the ground. In the end, SoFi has the same values as any big traditional financial services company just with shinier marketing. and a preachy attitude. Nothing transformative or innovative to be seen.
