Pros

The culture is great. After you earn your stripes, there is plenty of opportunity. The other employees and managers actually care about you. You arent just another number here. The company comes with great benefits, nice stock options, and a wonderful work environment. I love the people I work with and my managers. Its hard to beat in that regard.

Cons

Pay. It is as simple as that. If they would pay a competitive salary compared to other companies in the industry, they would keep top talent and entice more talent to join. It honestly would be a perfect job. A ton of employees go above and beyond and then get shafted when it comes time for annual reviews and promotions. If you are looking to move up in the company, that is great, just realize a big pay bump isn't something you can expect. The harder you work, the more work you get, with little compensation for going above and beyond. Hopefully they acknowledge that they have been under paying roles and consider taking a look at changing something. Good people want to stay here, but for the work they do, they could be making substantially more with less responsibility in other roles or companies. Other companies would gladly pay them for the quality work they do. Wish it was based more on performance than time in a position.

Pros

Flexibility is really good if you have a family.

Cons

I honestly don't have any cons except they don't really invest in continuing education like they used to. Especially for external certifications. They also made pretty big changes to the downside for health benefits at the beginning of the year.

Pros

Coworkers are the kindest, most intelligent people I've ever worked with. They are always willing to collaborate with existing teammates and to teach new hires. Mid-level management and directors are good people who care about their teams. Work/life balance is well-maintained and they are extremely flexible with WFH needs. Benefits are decent, and they actively encourage social events. Flex-Fridays mean most people WFH those days. nCino experience and certifications are coveted by Financial Institutions, and look great on resumes.

Cons

Pay is really low compared to other companies, and customers (banks) often recruit employees from nCino for 1.5 - 2x the salary. High-deductible insurance used to be provided for employees and their families, with the entire deductible covered via company-provided HSA contribution. This went away last year, which effectively cut pay for employees $2000 - $8000 depending on single/family insurance. Social culture and perks of being in-office are slowly fading away since the last CEO retired. Used to have happy hour on Fridays in Bitty & Beau's coffee shop on premises, and even the CEO would hang out with the troops. Used to have food trucks on-site often during the week. Used to have spontaneous Nerf-gun fights throughout the week, and the atmosphere was a lot more fun.
