      Pros

      Decent pay, fully remote work, flexible on time off

      Cons

      Corporate politics are terrible with nearly all advancement opportunities given based on who you know vs skills and experience.

      Everything about this company is confusing on purpose

      Pros

      I was compensated well for all of the long hours and weekends I worked.

      Cons

      Business and lending practices are a bit unorthodox but I guess that is par for the course when you work at a Fintech company. There was usually a lot of confusion where in the end nobody had a clear idea as to whether or not the lending practices were in compliance. In general, working for a fintech company that is not held to the same standards as a bank showed me how skewed business and lending practices can get.
