Pros

Interesting problems to solve. Great people.

Cons

As might be expected in the financial industry, infrastructure and security compliance can be a velocity constraint.

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts/feedback! I agree that we have a great people (you being one of them) :)! And we definitely have very interesting (and hard!) problems to solve. Thanks for balancing the velocity constraints that we have as a fintech company -- where trust is paramount -- with the need to keep things moving so we can build great products for our customers. I'm really glad you're part of the team.

Pros

Diversity of cultures including in leadership Flexible PTO Strong benefits Mission driven

Cons

Frequent pivots in business even on a monthly level. No point in annual plans. Layoffs that are frequent and unreported whether due to % "underperforming" or no reason given. Lack of work life balance due to scarce resources Leadership now concentrated in Europe which is becoming disconnected from the bigger US and Canadian businesses Does not support remote workers
