Citizens Bank sues SoFi over poaching 30 mortgage staff who generated $5M in revenue

Citizens Bank has sued SoFi, alleging the digital lender poached 30 mortgage employees since 2024, affecting operations across nine states. The lawsuit centres on two employee groups, particularly nine Connecticut-based staff who resigned in June within minutes of each other. Citizens claims SoFi "strategically orchestrated" the departures, which represented $400 million in closed loans and $5 million in revenue the previous year. The bank alleges employees transferred confidential client data before leaving. The Connecticut departures eliminated 70% of the branch's mortgage producers and 80% of mortgages, essentially wiping out Citizens' market presence there. Three additional Connecticut employees have since joined SoFi. A SoFi spokesperson called the lawsuit "a baseless allegation and a clever attempt to prevent Citizens employees from pursuing career opportunities elsewhere.
