Pros

The people that I work with on a day-to-day basis are awesome. Most everyone is willing to help you understand and learn. Never felt that I was looked down on for not knowing something.

Cons

Return to office was conveyed as a way to improve collaboration and innovation but at the end of the day it seems like they only want people in seats and don't actually care about anything else. Culture feels forced and disruptive.

Thank you for your post and we are sorry you are still unhappy with our back to office decision that was made 18 months ago. However, after thoughtful consideration it was the best decision for the company. I'm sure you can appreciate that nCino is a business and decisions must be made to ensure the ongoing success of the business. And we agree with you on your comment about our people. AMAZING people who care about this company and it's success - even when challenging decisions have to be made. All the best!

Pros

Flexibility is really good if you have a family.

Cons

I honestly don't have any cons except they don't really invest in continuing education like they used to. Especially for external certifications. They also made pretty big changes to the downside for health benefits at the beginning of the year.

Pros

Coworkers are the kindest, most intelligent people I've ever worked with. They are always willing to collaborate with existing teammates and to teach new hires. Mid-level management and directors are good people who care about their teams. Work/life balance is well-maintained and they are extremely flexible with WFH needs. Benefits are decent, and they actively encourage social events. Flex-Fridays mean most people WFH those days. nCino experience and certifications are coveted by Financial Institutions, and look great on resumes.

Cons

Pay is really low compared to other companies, and customers (banks) often recruit employees from nCino for 1.5 - 2x the salary. High-deductible insurance used to be provided for employees and their families, with the entire deductible covered via company-provided HSA contribution. This went away last year, which effectively cut pay for employees $2000 - $8000 depending on single/family insurance. Social culture and perks of being in-office are slowly fading away since the last CEO retired. Used to have happy hour on Fridays in Bitty & Beau's coffee shop on premises, and even the CEO would hang out with the troops. Used to have food trucks on-site often during the week. Used to have spontaneous Nerf-gun fights throughout the week, and the atmosphere was a lot more fun.
