      Pros

      Growing extremely fast and has all of the stresses and frustrations you would expect with that — but the excitement, learning and sense of achievement makes up for it. I've had the opportunity to work on multiple beats within corporate finance that I didn't know well beforehand and learn a huge amount in the process. Journalistically that's very satisfying. Some people complain about the admin involved in being a manager, but the structures are thoughtfully put together and intended to support. I've worked at competitors in the past where the admin feels mindless, here it's well-intentioned and has helped me and my team develop quickly. Compared to other places I've worked I feel like I'm learning every day here. If you're someone who pushes themselves and appreciates being pushed by others to achieve your full potential this is a great opportunity. Hybrid work policy is really helpful, I spend a lot of time in the office but feel know I can work from home when necessary. If you are juggling other responsibilities this is a gamechanger.

      Cons

      Fast growth means things are changing constantly. The unpredictability keeps you on your toes but can be stressful at times and people are very stretched. Hybrid work policy feels like it functions inconsistently across teams and could do with more structure.

      Pros

      Comprehensive benefits package in the US and mostly friendly office environment

      Cons

      Management is obsessed with rapid growth and is straying from the values that make this company a long-term winner. They expect unrealistic goals from staff while constantly changing strategies or not providing the tools they need to hit those goals, a problem across every team. It leaves individuals anxious that they will be fired for not being a superstar while strong contributors who remember the vibe before 2025 are looking to the exits. The amount of churn from both firings and voluntary departures puts people on edge. They can't perform as well when they feel they're one bad quarter or one dropped client away from the boot. The last few reviews on here are from managers saying the company has a good culture but the majority of non-managers (including me) would disagree. A culture of fear and pressure overtook optimism last year. Execs say they want open and honest candor but are dismissive of anything that doesn't resemble rocket ship emojis.

      Thanks for taking the time to share this - it’s clear you’ve put thought into it and care about 9fin and what we’re building. 9fin is ambitious, no doubt about that. We want to be the leading provider of debt market analytics and AI, this decade. That’s a big goal, and that brings pace, stretch, high ownership and of course, change. For many people, that’s part of what makes 9fin exciting — the chance to take on responsibility and grow quickly — but we also know that doesn’t feel the same for everyone, all the time. As we continue to grow, one of the things we think a lot about is how to keep the best parts of what made 9fin special while also evolving as a company. It’s something we’re actively working on, whether that’s through better clarity, stronger support, or continued investment in tools and teams. Open, honest feedback really does matter to us. If you’re open to it, I’d encourage you to share more directly with your manager, People team, or any of the execs. Those conversations help us understand context and make things better over time.
