      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Mission driven company Great benefits Strong philosophy and science backed approach to coaching Solid program for coaches and enterprise

      Cons

      Unrealistic sales targets - only a small percentage of reps attaining quota. Pressure from the C-suite communicated through management to the team in an unhealthy way.

      Gaslighting indeed

      Pros

      Unlimited coaching for yourself and a +1 is a really nice benefit. Many of my co-workers are awesome people that I like working with. Having a company-wide week long summer and winter break makes for a great time to decompress without feeling like you are missing something.

      Cons

      Leadership is all over the place. There is an incredible lack of consistency in vision and execution from the top. It's just thought leadership vomit. Leading by slogan that somebody read from some famous founder in a tweet. e.g. "hard is our moat", "feedback is a gift", etc. Everything will change month to month or quarter to quarter. There is no real sense of how to actually organize and operate the company or prioritize and resource projects. Anything that requires cross-functional work is a mess. You'll operate in this environment and then be evaluated on ambiguous "values" and "high impact behaviors". This is where the gaslighting comes in. Maybe you didn't "do less and deliver more" or exhibit "extreme ownership". There will never be acknowledgement that you weren't put in a good position to succeed. You just need to "get comfortable with being uncomfortable". Very sad bottom line quote I heard from a co-worker: "I've never worked somewhere that made me feel so bad about myself". That's pretty damning from an employee of a company selling "clarity, purpose and passion".

      Bad. Just really bad.

      Pros

      The pay is good if you are based in a smaller town. The people you get to work with are great.

      Cons

      The founders have no experience in anything other than consulting. The whole thing is a dumpster fire. Run away.
