Pros
I love my job because I think the leaders at Lending Club really care about giving their employees opportunities to work on cool things and make a real difference in the company. At Lending Club most employees work in finance and technology, and I work in visual communications where I collaborate with both groups and help with a variety of different projects. In my role it's awesome to work with so many different people with different expertise while leveraging my skillset and helping them with design and multimedia. My boss gives me great opportunities to use all of my skills sets and interests, and I don't think I'd be able to grow my career the way I have if it weren't for the leaders at the company who really care about their employees and giving them the opportunities to impact the business. My boss is great and I love my team. Aside from loving my role and the projects I get to work on, my second favorite thing about Lending Club is the culture. The company happy hours, our summer regatta, team lunches, etc. etc. are all things I look forward to. I want to hang out with my coworkers and we do all the time! Location is awesome. We're surrounded by great restaurants in the downtown financial district area. I take BART to work everyday and its super easy.
Cons
Like any fast moving/growing company, things change fast. Gotta keep up!
