Experience is dependent on your manager and team
Software Engineer III (Current Employee) - San Jose, CA - July 7, 2021
Indeed Featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedGreat to learn about Fintech industry with interesting problems to solve. There are a lot of smart engineers that work here but a lot of great ones leave. Your experience is highly dependent on your manager and if they like you and will push for your promotion. There is a focus to hire less full-time engineers and more contractors in lower cost areas.
Pros
Competitive compensation
Cons
Work life balance, Hiring less full-time engineers and more consultants

Decent but difficult life-work-balance
Software Engineer 2 (Former Employee) - Scottsdale, AZ - February 13, 2019
There are a lot of fun technologies and problems to solve. There is however a huge work-life balance issue. Long hours were very common and encouraged. People with bigger home responsibilities might not like it as much.
Pros
free food, good compensation, fun problems to solve
Cons
high stress environment
