Pros

GREAT coworkers, non-comp perks were sweet, transparent leadership

Cons

Pay seemed lower than average, my manager didn't know how to manage, remotes nice but the best thing about Upstart was the culture - remote + poor additions to the team ruined the culture a bit

Pros

You will thrive if you can follow instructions and execute it without questioning the status quo. Good pay, good benefits, and mundane job across all verticals. Easy to cruise if you are strategic about positioning yourself as an achiever.

Cons

Company is inundated with people who couldn't survive FAANG companies. Innovation is only encouraged at the executive level, with little to no tolerance for mistakes. If you are an outside the box thinker, this company is not for you.
