Pros

- Will send you a lot of free merch - Some people are nice

Cons

- Toxic managers that have no clue how to manage - Micromanagement pattern to the point it's impossible to get work done - Favoritism is a big aspect of work - Late hours and working on weekends - HR won't do anything about toxic managers even if they know all the data - When leaving the company expect management and HR to try to force you to say what company you going to

We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and candid review of your time at SoFi. We are very sad to hear your comments around toxic management, HR, and long hours - your experience is not indicative of the culture and work environment we are committed to building at SoFi. You may have left before we re-launched our manager onboarding program, which includes tools and trainings to enable our people-managers with the support they need to lead and inspire their teams. Plus, later this year we will launch a new 6-month training program for new managers and newly promoted managers. We wish you the best in your career endeavors, and we welcome an email at glassdoor@sofi.org if you'd like to continue the conversation. Take care.

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.
