Inconsistent goals from leaders, no clarity of vision for the global business and individual products. Beware of layoffs in January, it seems to be a recurring theme.

We are sorry you didn't have a good experience but hopefully you have landed in a place where you are happy and productive. And no recurring themes at nCino. The actions the company had to take in the past are never something that is planned nor wanted, but sometimes necessary. We are so fortunate that our team members are resilient and engaged at nCino and understand that at times, we have to take certain actions to ensure we have the right team on the field. And because we did things to ensure our growth, we are a larger organization than we have ever been - filled with an amazing team doing amazing things. We hope you have found an employer where you can be equally excited and happy. All the best!
I honestly don't have any cons except they don't really invest in continuing education like they used to. Especially for external certifications. They also made pretty big changes to the downside for health benefits at the beginning of the year.
Coworkers are the kindest, most intelligent people I've ever worked with. They are always willing to collaborate with existing teammates and to teach new hires. Mid-level management and directors are good people who care about their teams. Work/life balance is well-maintained and they are extremely flexible with WFH needs. Benefits are decent, and they actively encourage social events. Flex-Fridays mean most people WFH those days. nCino experience and certifications are coveted by Financial Institutions, and look great on resumes.
Cons
Pay is really low compared to other companies, and customers (banks) often recruit employees from nCino for 1.5 - 2x the salary. High-deductible insurance used to be provided for employees and their families, with the entire deductible covered via company-provided HSA contribution. This went away last year, which effectively cut pay for employees $2000 - $8000 depending on single/family insurance.
Social culture and perks of being in-office are slowly fading away since the last CEO retired. Used to have happy hour on Fridays in Bitty & Beau's coffee shop on premises, and even the CEO would hang out with the troops. Used to have food trucks on-site often during the week. Used to have spontaneous Nerf-gun fights throughout the week, and the atmosphere was a lot more fun.
