BetterUp reviews

Terrible work/life balance, fake sense of transparency from Leadership, very inexperienced leaders from a business perspective.

The company is a mess. Executive leadership is so detached from everyone else, engages in weird trips and spending, constantly shifts strategy and shuffles team functions (literally 4+ times in the past year) and has doubled down on blaming and belittling IC's when the company is not performing to their standards despite the frequently shifting goal posts. If someone's full time job becomes adapting to executive driven change versus executing for the business, the company will never hit its goals. As others have mentioned, there is a rampant favoritism with select employees being able to use the company as a open playground: sidestepping any process, being put into multiple VP roles across org functions regardless of qualification, escalating (often via text) to the founders the second they don't get what they want, never being at risk of layoffs, etc. This often results in one person being able to single-handedly derail an org-wide project at a company of 700+ people.
