Pros

Convenient downtown/FiDi location, easy access to BART. Mostly good people working in Operations/Support department. If you like free snacks, you'll probably love it. Room for advancement if you know the right people and suck up.

Cons

You definitely feel like you're only a number in the Support department. You're tracked with metrics indicating if you're following adherence and staying in queue; don't want to fall under 93% or you'll get a lecture. Most of the reps are actively looking for other work; no one seems to be genuinely happy doing the work. LC likes to promote their Yoga classes and Massages you can get but good luck getting off the phones to be able to take advantage of any of that stuff. You spend all day talking to people who are not really financially savvy & sometimes they don't realize what they're getting themselves into. LC has a very aggressive (maybe even manipulative) marketing tactic to get people to apply for these loans. If you've been in one call center, you've been in them all. Pay is on the lower scale for similar jobs w/ other companies.

Pros

New office, new name, same great company. Good growth opportunity where you can see your impact.

Cons

Not a huge con, but better snacks or catered lunch would be a plus.

Pros

Decent starting pay and some good teammates. The company is highly profitable and continues to grow. Opportunities to take on new responsibilities and expand your scope. Equity awards.

Cons

Over the course of several years, I have been given additional responsibilities multiple times without more compensation despite the company’s strong financial performance. While I’m happy to contribute, the pattern of increasing responsibility without recognition is a major demotivator, even to your most diligent employees. It's tiresome. It doesn't take much effort to make strong contributors feel seen and valued, and it's such a missed opportunity not to. The company frequently talks about culture and values, but there is infighting and rivalries between teams and individuals. That energy creates drama instead of collaboration and leads to repetitious mistakes. Good people — especially top performers — eventually leave because they can.
