Pros

I met some of the best people at affirm, culture was great, and great benefits and pay but it’s a facade.

Cons

It seems since post IPO, and RIFs that culture has truly shifted. Middle Management often does not give honest or unbiased feedback and willing to tell you you’re doing great but talk differently behind your back to higher ups. Lack of transparency and honesty and a sort of fairness element I feel comes from management and upper levels. Favoritism, lack of growth. Not sure what is happening with start ups but the level of greed coming from the Csuite is slightly alarming. I would avoid this org at all costs.
