BetterUp reviews

- Focus on flashy over a solid, working product - Underpaid coaches - Disconnect between C suite (founders) and reality of product. CEO is so out of touch - The heavy focus on the mission and values (literally got stickers lol) felt like manipulation. Oh, we're not doing well because we need to focus on "do less deliver more"? That's not how this works. - Sometimes this company felt like going to school instead of being treated like an adult employee at work. So many reading assignments and discussions. I enjoyed the reading sometimes but it felt SO top-down, forced, and weird. "Sorry I can't help out around the house after a long day at work, I have to read this book my CEO/upper management said we had to read in 2 weeks so I can discuss the questions provided to me with my team." Often felt like if I said no I'd be punished, judged, or left out.

Seemingly never ending culture of toxicity and bad leadership. Useless and utterly powerless HR. Despite several attempts to “re-org”, toxic insecure and incompetent leaders with no people skills still manage to find their way to positions of power. Big shame for what the company sells.
