Pros: Strategically positioned near a BART/Muni station, offering a convenient commute and a vibrant array of lunchtime dining options, as in-office lunch service has been discontinued.

Cons: LendingClub has experienced multiple rounds of layoffs this year, indicating a shift towards an offshore model for its engineering operations. With most projects in maintenance mode and limited investment in new product development, the company appears to rely on offshore teams for support. This transition has left remaining engineers feeling burned out and overburdened as they collaborate with their counterparts in India. Given the company's trajectory, it's reasonable to anticipate further engineering layoffs as knowledge transfer to offshore teams progresses. This pattern is common in engineering organizations, raising concerns for current and prospective employees. Management's authoritative approach further adds to the challenges faced by engineers. Engineers are left with the disheartening option of suppressing their concerns and working tirelessly until their departure to avoid this fate. In conclusion, LendingClub's engineering landscape is plagued by offshoring, knowledge gaps, and the looming threat of layoffs. Engineers considering this company should carefully weigh these factors before making a decision.

Pros: Nice people. Good perks. Flexible.

Cons: Unclear vision; projects don’t get done.

Pros: This company has a very good culture. This company is for all types of people, and there is no discrimination.

Cons: Not tech savvy; they could have invested a lot in tech.
