Pros

Compensation is decent, Some great people to work with. Managers seem to be oriented towards helping people.

Cons

Have made some really poor technical decisions from higher level manager that have degraded the quality of our code base. But developers were blamed instead of the directors who made the bad call.

Pros

SoFi is a great place to create and advance a career, has a great engineering team, actively works to help members achieve financial independence, provides extensive benefits, and management at every level genuinely seems to listen to and action on employee feedback.

Cons

The base salary, on average, seems to be lower than other companies. Promote to reward rather than promote to challenge (i.e. operate at the next level for a year or two then get promoted). That can be a Pro, as well.
