If I could give a 0 I would - Anonymous employee SoFi Employee Review

The reality did not come close to expectations. Management culture was deeply disappointing and, at times, toxic. Leaders frequently spoke negatively about employees, often portraying their own teams as incompetent rather than investing in coaching, development, or accountability. This created an environment of fear, mistrust, and burnout rather than collaboration. Workloads were extreme and expectations consistently unrealistic, with aggressive deadlines that were not achievable given available resources. Despite repeated requests for support or prioritization, help was minimal to nonexistent. The expectation was to simply “figure it out,” regardless of capacity or impact. Opportunities for advancement were essentially nonexistent. Growth was discussed in theory but not supported in practice. Decisions felt opaque, and favoritism appeared to play a role in who was supported versus who was overloaded. Human Resources was aware of concerns raised but responses were vague and dismissive, often stating matters were “handled” without any visible change or follow-up. This left employees feeling unheard and unprotected. I joined with high expectations and genuine excitement, having actively sought out this company. Unfortunately, the gap between the employer brand and the lived employee experience was significant.
