Pros

Overall : Growing rocket-ship of a company on the cutting edge of Fintech. I did my research on fintech before joining. There has been 4X investment in Fintech in the last year compared to the year before. Prosper is a pioneer in the p2p lending industry and has been doing it for a long time. This company is poised to be a winner in a exciting new market. Company culture : It's fun, informal and everyone around seems to have a good time doing what they do. People take their jobs seriously. Benefits : Great benefits. Easy access to Bart for my commute. The kitchen is well stocked, they have a gazillion options for coffee @work and a Philz coffee is only a block away.

Cons

My commute is a little longer but I am taking advantage by catching up on my reading materials on Bart.

Pros

I have truly enjoyed my time at Prosper. It is a company that offers genuine opportunities to learn, grow, and take on new challenges within your role. I absolutely love my team, my manager, and find the work itself deeply fulfilling. One of the standouts for me is the leadership. Having come from a previous company where leadership was hesitant to make difficult choices, which led to multiple rounds of layoffs, I have a massive appreciation for how Prosper’s leadership operates. They are willing to make short-term, sometimes unpopular decisions because they prioritize the long-term safety and stability of all employees. It is a huge relief to work for a financially stable organization where I can see myself building a long-term career. Prosper is also one of the most diverse companies I have been a part of. From my perspective, the compensation is very competitive compared to other industry ranges I have seen, and the benefits offerings meet my needs.

Cons

While the leadership makes the right calls for long-term stability, the resulting tough decisions can sometimes be difficult to navigate in the moment, the transparency behind the decisions is super helpful.

Pros

Fast-paced environment, able to directly contribute to company goals Good people who genuinely believe in the mission We regularly hear customer testimonials detailing how we've had a positive impact on their lives Leadership is transparent about company performance Only 2 days a week in the office

Cons

The company performed well in 2025, but we didn't see some benefits return until this year which has caused residual frustration Smaller teams offer less growth opportunity Some mid-level leaders manage up very well Pay is okay, but not competitive with larger tech companies
