Pros
  • Its modern-day fintech, provides good compensation and perks, interesting engineering challenges at scale, and a great work-life balance, if that's what you are up for, it's an awesome place

  • Transparency from upper management into vision, strategy and stand on delicate socio/economic issues. It's great to see Marqeta cares

  • No Kool-Aids but need to appreciate the awesome collaboration and communication between engineering teams which helps build an inclusive and effective engineering culture.

Cons

Not the best paymaster, primarily owing to the low fintech stock prices. Base and bonus could be at par (or even better) at 80+ percentile (across all companies, including FAANG).
