SoFi reviews

- Familiar tech stack: there's nothing new under the sun. I joined this field for novelty - My manager and I had (somewhat) incompatible personalities and SoFi has made it _very_ difficult to change teams based on interest/fit. - Food: there weren't staff for the kitchens, so there was a team rotation. Some teams were more lax than others.

-Shaky business model, macro headwinds make future growth and profitability prospects weak. Raising rates shrink the student loan refinancing market , personal loan business hasn’t proved resiliency through a recession, traditional banks/brokerages are racing towards zero fees models. -Org structure is messy. Business units, products and risk often overlap as decision owners and create confusion. People distributed across 5 different locations makes execution slower. -Culture still needs a lot of work. A#$holes are tolerated if they are high performers. Finger pointing takes precedence over calm root cause analysis and problem solving when things go south. - Micromanagement is common.Being a woman is hard. -Lack of emphasis on employee development. -High churn across engineering and design org. Understaffed teams lead to ICs getting overworked/burned. -Overall TC is low due to falling stock price.
