Typical, and that's not always a bad thing
- Great pay: Other companies in the value are upset that they can't pay as well.
- Familiar tech stack (JVM, ELK stack, Redis, RDBMS).
- Great people: Everybody was worth talking to. My team was amazing.
- Food: The kitchens were unrivaled.
-
Familiar tech stack: there's nothing new under the sun. I joined this field for novelty.
-
My manager and I had (somewhat) incompatible personalities, and SoFi has made it very difficult to change teams based on interest/fit.
-
Food: there weren't staff for the kitchens, so there was a team rotation. Some teams were more lax than others.
Better align with the values toted internally. As of Jan. 2019, for someone who was sticking out a bit from the herd, it felt like getting whacked on the head for being different.
Run after challenges. Be different. Focus on what's best for the customer.
