Pros

Inner Work Days were nice -- Developed a really close relationship with my Coach

Cons

--Did not feel encouraged to be myself, or speak up when something didn't sit right (people getting let go for weird reasons, lots of burn out across team that was embraced with "wartime" language instead of trying to support people). -- Founders are Bros with an inner circle and inflated egos-- definitely felt like they played favorites a lot. -- Low and Mid-level management is not well supported or trained (outside of the sales org), other than receiving a Coach, which often leaves individual contributors feeling not well supported

Thank you for taking time to share your thoughts. We take feedback on our teammates’ experiences very seriously, and the experience you outlined here is certainly not the team culture we’re aiming to cultivate. As our company continues to scale, we recognize the growing pains, and are actively making it a priority to address them. We have always welcomed feedback through our company-wide Culture Canvass or anonymously through AllVoices to help us identify gaps and ways we can improve. We want every member of the team to feel supported in managing their workload, and we are committed to ensuring that managers are provided training and learning opportunities to continue growing. We have shared some of the progress and programs we’ve implemented so far at our last All Hands, and we look forward to rolling out more programs in the weeks ahead. I realize you have noted that you are no longer an employee with us, but if you are willing to share more details with us, our HR team would be grateful for the opportunity to learn more about where we can improve. Thank you again for your candid feedback, and we hope to hear from you soon. - The BetterUp People Team
