Pros
- Work on a product that materially improves the lives of customers (the highest NPS score in the industry by far) by giving them loans quickly and at lower interest rates than others. Make the world a better place. Engineers love this :) - Work with high quality colleagues. I see colleagues who are from some of the best companies and other extremely talented and hard working ones. Lots of passion. New engineering leadership is quite awesome. - Work in a company that is experiencing hockey stick growth. It's a unicorn.
Cons
- Hockey stick growth comes with challenges. I think there was close to 500% growth in employee count in the last year. Amazing. But comes with challenges like physical space, systems that are straining to catch up, lots of code that needs to be rearchitected, etc. Challenges but good problems to have. - We are hiring like crazy so onboarding all the new employees while completing our own projects. - San Francisco location is not great for everyone. We need an office in South Bay for heaven's sake.
