At the head of the spear of technology, good place to learn, but still has many issues with management. - Business Analyst Nubank Employee Review

Pros

The company is very tech oriented. Offers an experience not very often seen, with the sheer amount of data and big data processing it is possible to be extremely data driven, and make very accurate decisions. Has a decent career plan, but with every year that passes promotions become more difficult, which may be a good thing (for the reason pontes below). Has a competitive fixed compensation

Cons

Heterogeneity in management. Some areas have very competent people, but others have really inexperienced managers, which hugely deteriorates the life of ICs in general, and reduces the learning curve. Also, some areas have the expected nubank culture, but others seem more like a consultant firm than a startup. The variable compensation in stocks (at least the way it is today) will be mediocre in the coming future. With the company size now it would make more sense to give other types of bonuses. Also the benefits are lagging behind, at least for BAs.

Pros

Lots of exciting bets being made, many growth opportunities, very smart people who also know how to have work life balance

Cons

Priorities shift a lot which can be frustrating, but that's part of the game of fintech (very fast moving)

Pros

High level of competence of colleagues You're never the most experienced or highest skilled person in your team Constantly learning and career growing Freedom to explore new technologies Very data-oriented Very technical oriented managers Clojure shop Well-tested, well crafted, always improving code solutions

Cons

Executive level decisions sometimes are big-bang and not gradual Promotion strategy isn't based on performance but on the existence of an open role
