StellarFi Employee Reviews

I feel like I can grow in the role in terms of production and output, yet am a little unclear what my next step is in terms of title and how to get there

The sky is the limit!

I've already learned a lot by being here for a couple of weeks and we're only getting started! I am very excited to grow within the company and learn from my peers.

I have really enjoyed working with my manager and gotten good mentorship, guidance, and feedback. As a small company, I think the individual growth potential here is huge.

I can honestly say I feel that there's a lot opportunity for growth at StellarFi. From the new ideas and future endeavors that are in place to even the fact that I'm encouraged to bring forth my thoughts and ideas as well.

During onboarding I was told I can look to grow out of the department I am currently in, I have never been given that opportunity in prior workplaces.

I see my future at Stellar and I see the potential to grow for years to come.

I know my manager has my best interest and will help me grow.

A fast-growing startup means fast-growing needs, and there are AMPLE opportunities to try new skills and move into higher-level positions.

Already growing.

When speaking to my manager, we speak about job titles and roles beyond what I'm working on right now.

Our mission is to help our users

Even though ARR is a high priority, I get a strong sense making a difference to a large group of consumers is well-rooted in our mission.

I strongly agree with this statement, I believe that our company exist to solve a bigger issue in the U.S. I also love that we're helping the masses reach their financial goals.

I know StellarFi's purpose (helping folks struggling with their finances build credit and pay bills) but I don't think our purpose carries the weight it could in our day-to-day. As a startup, we have two main goals: to help our customers, and to survive and thrive as a business. We focus a lot on the latter, but could do a better job focusing on the former. I think we could do more, for example, to highlight customer success stories, enact more CS policies to reenforce that we want to do what's best for our customers, etc.

Before I started working here, the purpose and mission of Stellarfi was always very clear. The passion behind Stellarfi's mission / goal are very apparent and great to be apart of.

I feel like we are really helping people.

Great purpose overall, Its being refined and were understanding it more. It was vague at the beginning, now I understand were helping people with money.

There is a big focus on team cohesion and keeping the needs of the user in mind.

I feel that my opinion matters at the company. I love the mission and genuinely feel happy to come to work everyday.

It’s a for-profit startup and it’s been made clear that revenue will take precedent when it’s mission vs. money. That being said, it’s great to see StellarFi truly making good credit more accessible for marginalized/underserved communities.

I think the overall sense of purpose needs to be clearer for the team.

It's clear we are mission-based

Very flexible

Very accommodating.

Our company culture is very flexible when it comes to taking time off. Our management does a really good job of promoting time off and has a good system using Google calendar.

I have taken some time and plan to take more, and have needed to take extra time for personal and health reasons recently. The team has been very supportive and given me space when needed. I do think there are certain responsibilities I have that need more redundancy and can be problematic for me to be gone, but we're working on that.

Yes, it's nice to know that I can take time off when needed or sick.

I feel like it's encouraged.

The best job I have ever had in terms of flexibility.

I feel grateful for the amount of time we get to take off. This allows me to spend time with my family and recharge when needed.

Unlimited time off is pretty sweet. The only thing keeping me from taking more time off is that I am genuinely excited about the projects I’m working on, so I don’t really want to slow down.

My PTO hasn't been denied yet.

Yes! And I need to take more ;)

Everyone is great to work with and open to collaboration. It feels like a team/family

Strongly agree with this statement. Nothing but inclusive vibes since day 1

Everyone at StellarFi has been very welcoming! During my first week, everyone sent welcoming messages and set up 1:1 meetings to get to know you.

It is very apparent inclusivity is a genuine priority for the company. I would recommend the company consider diversity when hiring for the exec team in the future.

Generally, I think Stellar is a very inclusive place to work. Ideas, concerns, questions are all encouraged and supported. I do think we have a bit of room for improvement in how we solicit those ideas/concerns/questions from team members. I think this survey is a great step toward that.

I've felt very welcome from my first day to now.

Since day 1 I have felt that people in my team and outside of my team have wanted to hear my input on certain things. Everyone was so welcoming and I have not felt out of place.

I have felt included as a minority.

I have never seen any instance of discrimination for any reason, and the overall team is very diverse.

The team is very diverse and I haven’t witnessed any negativity to that fact or ill treatment of employees for any reason.

I appreciate that women, people of color, and queer folks are represented in leadership and management roles at StellarFi. Our team reflects the communities we aim to serve.

StellarFi hires people from all backgrounds. Management does a great job with inclusion.

There's an open feeling across the company to provide feedback, both internal and cross-departmental, which is great

Overall, our management is doing an amazing job holding it down for everyone! Keep up the good work and I'm very excited about what the future holds for us! I'm happy to be part of the team!

I have asked for and gotten feedback from my manager a few times, as well as from some peers and other coworkers. I think we could foster that a bit more though, with quarterly checkins/360 feedback/other strategies.

The feedback I've received thus far has been very helpful, delivered with kindness, and with intent to help with growth / improvement. I've never felt I received feedback in a negative way and that's very appreciated.

I never feel that I ask dumb questions from my leadership and other departments.

I have an action plan that I can take action on.

I'm grateful to be here at StellarFi. I have grown, been challenged, and have created work I'm proud of. This is the first time in a very long time that I have been truly happy about coming to work everyday.

Directives and feedback are unclear and that’s a huge struggle for me personally. But I’m thinking that will probably change as operations become more routine.

This depend on the team member, but an average would be 3.

I don't always receive direct feedback, but when I do, it's actionable
