Pros

Noble mission, some good colleagues, and benefits are pretty good.

Cons

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. The CEO lacks the confidence and stability needed to lead effectively. The so-called 'executive team' appears more focused on status and power than on steering the company in a productive direction. Short-term thinking dominates, resulting in constant starts and stops, frequent re-orgs, and shifting roadmaps. This creates a highly inefficient production environment. Employees who raise concerns or suggest solutions often face alienation, with the company’s 'high-impact behaviors' weaponized against them. Rather than addressing real issues, the executive team prioritizes maintaining control. If you’re seeking a workplace that fosters career growth, meaningful work, and psychological safety, consider looking elsewhere. BetterUp may not be the right fit for you.

Pros

Incredible clients who are so responsive to coaching

Cons

This business is built on the backs of highly qualified coaches. And those coaches feel disrespected and under compensated.

Pros

The people. The mission. Legit watching some great things happen in peoples' lives because of our product.

Cons

There is an OG leadership club that runs this place. If you're not in, you're out. Lots of turnover among key positions. Lots of micromanagement and shaming. Wish this company practiced what they preached.
