Pros

Upstart takes care of their employees. I’m often delightfully surprised by the support provided from the founder level down to my direct manager.

Cons

Even though I work in an entirely different field it has become increasingly evident that the operations workforce is not seen as equal to other employees. It’s hard to see their questions and concerns blatantly ignored when they are providing some essential functions for the company.

Pros

Great product, great people, sharp leadership, great culture, great benefits, plenty of growth opportunities, remote (for tech roles)

Cons

I honestly can’t complain. The cofounders are transparent. They take live Q&A every Friday during TGIF. There are current macro concerns (which is why I marked thumbs down for 6 month outlook) but Upstart seems to be in pretty good shape.
