Pros

The schedule from 5am to 1:30pm was working great for me. They have free snacks in the kitchen.

Cons

They do not offer to match 401k contributions. Direct management was a nightmare, they treat employees like robots, write them up for any irrelevant, childish reason. We had daily goals on amount of approved loans, to the point that manager discouraged us from using the restroom, but called us away from our desk for impromptu meetings for every little stupid reason.

I’m disappointed to hear that your experience was not more positive when you were here. This is not the type of work environment we want here at SoFi. Thank you for your feedback. We are actively researching a company match for our 401(k), while we maintain our rich benefit offerings (full medical/dental/vision benefits with no premium costs passed to employees, $200/month contribution to employee student loans, $12/day to cover lunch costs, tuition reimbursement, etc.). I welcome the opportunity to connect with you directly to learn more about your experience and how we can improve. You can reach me at apearson@sofi.org. – A. Pearson, HR Business Partner

Pros

You are only required to work from the office 1 day of the week and the rest from home. The Benefit package is great. The company has free snacks, fruits and drinks at the office and it provides the employees with lunch at least once a month while at the office.

Cons

You are literately a modern day slave with low pay and a tone of work. After a few months you have to get upskilled (more work) without any additional compensation. You are constantly evaluated: First call resolution is huge, the goal is for the member not to have to call back in at least a week. The company wants the call to last less than 5 minutes (or you get dinged). The company wants the members to respond to the surveys and if they don't it counts against you. if you go on chats, you will have to serve maneuver between two different once at the same time. You ONLY get a 30 minute lunch break and two 15 minute breaks. It is difficult to go to the restroom because while on the phones there is NO actual bathroom disposition and so you will get dinged and if it takes you longer than 5 minutes you get a message from intrudium informing you that you are out of adherence. The technology is the worse I have ever had to work with. It uses a program called Zscaler that is constantly disconnecting and when it does, it interrupts all of the other programs that are required to work with, in which case you have to inform WFM that you are having tech issues either by telephone or by sending a Workflow and hope it gets approved. While in training you are informed that you will only get paid up to 1 hr while having a tech issue. Workflows are huge and used for everything, including if you are suppose to clock out for the day but you are still on a call and it makes you go over 5 minutes (or you get dinged). Putting in for PTO or Sick Time is also not easy either, it's all about the companies needs so, hopefully you will get approved or maybe not. H.R. is only there a bit while you are hired and of course if you are let go but other than that, not sure what they do because there is no real connection.
