- Senior leadership continued to ignore documented evidence of bullying and threatening by C-level to employes. This has lead to a toxic work environment and reinforced a culture of fear and anxiety.
- Figure doesn't value their employees. Many people just randomly disappear from the company without any explanation, so many people are constantly worried about their jobs. Figure claims that they conduct an employee engagement survey because they care about their employees' voices, but they just highlight the compliments and ignore all of the negative feedback. It’s not surprising that Figure doesn’t even have an exit interview, because they don't actually care about their employees' opinion. Figure just fires all the people that disagree with them, so they are left with a high engagement score, but that score itself has self-selection bias.
- Figure heavily monitors their employees' personal online presence. They coerced us to update our LinkedIn and to promote Figure. Employees that make any comment that isn't perceived as a positive endorsement (on any social network) are questioned. That's why everything online about Figure is so glowingly positively and should be a red flag.
- C-level lacks industry experience. They run it like an old and dated bank, not like a true fin-tech. They promote themselves as AI- and data-driven, but they don't truly value data nor are they bringing in people who are knowledgable about ML/AI and how to actually apply it to fin-tech
- Despite the unlimited PTO policy, actually attempting to use it is discouraged and at best begrudgingly allowed.
