      A lot of BS but they don't walk the talk

      Pros

      BU has good benefits and salaries

      Cons

      The co-founders have to be idolized, everyone has to be super hyped to work here. The CEO often makes thinly veiled threats in all-hands meetings about firing people who do not adhere to their values. Their onboarding is insane - so many useless meetings and many of them about how to 'balance thinking with doing' and that everyone needs to be super efficient which is quite hilarious because the onboarding but also just their whole way of working is the opposite of efficient. Hilarious, but also annoying if you then actually have to work there.

      Pros

      Some great coaches you and clients can work with. And some very talented team, especially here on West Coast.

      Cons

      Awful culture! Very weak sales management, no accountability. Executive team out of touch with reality and the "dream" to IPO. Severe turnover for reps and getting worse with the mandatory performance plans.

      Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. We are deeply invested in the success of our sales team, and we aim to provide every member with the support they need. Mandatory performance plans were part of our commitment to increase performance transparency since the team expressed the importance of this at our last check-in. However, we are open to your thoughts on a better way to meet your needs. Our commitment is to create a culture where all team members can thrive, and we want to hear from you about how we can improve. You mentioned our IPO goals. We are definitely an ambitious company that aims to change the world in a meaningful way, which means we need to achieve ambitious goals. With that said, we use data and macroeconomic research to set targets that are both achievable and will help us fulfill our mission together in a challenging economy. We invite you to share your feedback directly with your sales leader, HR business partner, or anonymously with us on AllVoices so we can learn more from your experience and better support you. We hope to hear from you soon. -The People Team
