Inexperienced CEO - Anonymous Splash Financial Employee Review

Competitive pay. Positive culture, ie. everyone is on the same team, no "who is to blame". Everyone is approachable and enjoyable to talk to and learn from. Ability to grow in your career and receive or provide mentorship. Company knows what needs to be done to be successful and conveys that to build trust and drive to compete. Mature technical organization allows for positive interactions between software engineering and DevOps/IT.

Cross-team/business unit communication is sometimes lacking.

Splash is the kind of place where your work actually matters and people can tell. If you're someone who wants to own real problems and drive them to resolution, you will thrive here. I've had the opportunity to lead initiatives that touch product, compliance, engineering, and vendor relationships simultaneously, and leadership genuinely trusts you to run with them. That level of autonomy is rare, especially at a fintech at this stage. The pace is fast, but it's productive fast, not chaotic fast. You're moving quickly because the work is meaningful and the team is aligned, not because things are disorganized. Cross-functional collaboration is strong, and people across departments show up engaged and willing to work through hard problems together. From a growth standpoint, I've learned more here than in years at other companies. The exposure to complex, high-visibility programs has accelerated my development significantly. Leadership invests in the people who show up and deliver, and there are real paths forward for those who want them. The culture is one of the strongest I've experienced. Leaders are accessible, direct, and genuinely care about building something that works for both customers and employees.

The pace and scope of work can be a lot if you're not someone who enjoys wearing multiple hats. It rewards self-starters, but if you need a lot of external structure to operate, there may be an adjustment period.
