Pros

Prosper offers an impressive benefits package and the office space is new with friendly coworkers. The free snacks are also nice.

Cons

The commission structure is backwards. 65% of commission as a Sales Executive is conditional, and influenced by the performance of another department. This means that you can lose over half the commission of a single deal due to the actions and poor performance of someone else! The in-house and contracted lead generation departments are severely understaffed resulting in a deficit of pre-set appointments. Expect LOTS of cold calls every day, just to survive. The process is young, meaning as a Sales Executive you are busy spending time getting other documents and on boarding items after a deal is closed, taking time away from selling. Experienced sales professionals stay away!

Pros

I have truly enjoyed my time at Prosper. It is a company that offers genuine opportunities to learn, grow, and take on new challenges within your role. I absolutely love my team, my manager, and find the work itself deeply fulfilling. One of the standouts for me is the leadership. Having come from a previous company where leadership was hesitant to make difficult choices, which led to multiple rounds of layoffs, I have a massive appreciation for how Prosper’s leadership operates. They are willing to make short-term, sometimes unpopular decisions because they prioritize the long-term safety and stability of all employees. It is a huge relief to work for a financially stable organization where I can see myself building a long-term career. Prosper is also one of the most diverse companies I have been a part of. From my perspective, the compensation is very competitive compared to other industry ranges I have seen, and the benefits offerings meet my needs.

Cons

While the leadership makes the right calls for long-term stability, the resulting tough decisions can sometimes be difficult to navigate in the moment, the transparency behind the decisions is super helpful.

Pros

Fast-paced environment, able to directly contribute to company goals Good people who genuinely believe in the mission We regularly hear customer testimonials detailing how we've had a positive impact on their lives Leadership is transparent about company performance Only 2 days a week in the office

Cons

The company performed well in 2025, but we didn't see some benefits return until this year which has caused residual frustration Smaller teams offer less growth opportunity Some mid-level leaders manage up very well Pay is okay, but not competitive with larger tech companies
