Pros

None, other than most people are friendly to each other as everyone shares a common hatred, mistrust and 'terrified to speak up' bond with one another.

Cons

** Please ignore the 2-3 fake 5 star posts that will follow this one, they are forced by 1-2 certain VPs to their team following a bad, real review ** The 'management' team is a complete joke - it's about 4 inexperienced goons who are obsessed with their egos, don't know what they're doing and act above the rest of the company (literally don't say hi to employees) ** The entire company is, as the CEO once described himself in a townhall, "embarrassing". There is *literally* *no* *tech*; the entire mission statement is a lie - customers are being deceived and manually misdirected so Fundera can make a buck ** The employee base is a rotating door of any warm body they can get to fill a seat, until that person quits or is fired a few months later ** Bro-culture where the "sales team" (actually a call center of 50 people who field inbound calls all day every day) is one big clique and rules all ** If you're a yes man and can tolerate a toxic culture and sit at your desk from 9am-7pm, you could probably survive a year or two ** The company is going no where, fast. My only advise is to run

Pros

NerdWallet is a great brand with a cool office in a great location, and peers with whom I'll be friends for life. Holidays are also plentiful. Unfortunately, the company has lost its way. Fundera has experienced extreme employee turnover, resulting in constant staff changes. This exodus included knowledgeable managers, long-tenured reps, and support staff who were instrumental, like in SBA and training. The good snacks and lunches and an occasional ice cream truck gimmick don't make up for it.

Cons

The sales environment is built on a counterproductive "churn and burn" philosophy that focuses on activity metrics over revenue results. This approach systematically forces out efficient reps who exceed their sales quotas but not their call quotas. The constant cycle of replacing them with new hires who inevitably fail prevents sustainable growth and creates a dysfunctional work environment, indicating a fundamental misunderstanding by leadership about what drives success. Overall, the business strategy in sales, lender partnerships, and hiring suggests a business that has lost its way.
