Pros

Castlight employs the smartest and most talented employee base of any company in healthcare. The diversity of experiences in a company such as Castlight is amazing, as it draws the best and brightest from both the healthcare and software industries. As an innovator and market disruptor in the healthcare space, employees feel as though they are part of a greater mission to drive cost and quality transparency and empower consumers with the information needed to make better decisions. The leadership team is thoroughly invested in its employee base and is completely open and honest about all the positives and negatives that come with working in this space. Their ability and willingness to share nearly all information with all levels of the organization creates a culture that is conducive to serving the transparency market.

Cons

The only potential con for some, but not all, employees is the intensity of the work load. The meteoric rise of Castlight has led to the customer base exceeding the current staff capacity. However, Castlight has ramped up staffing at an accelerated pace to keep up with the needs of its customers.

Pros

First and foremost, the people are FANTASTIC. I have never worked with such smart, motivated, kind and fun people. Its wonderful. Plus everyone is 100% dedicated to the mission and that is so powerful. I also feel empowered by my job...I am part of a growing trend and company and I CAN contribute and bring ideas to the table even though I wasnt there from the beginning. Its so inspiring to go to work EVERYDAY!

Cons

Nothing...its just growing fast so some things can always be slow to develop but nothing that causes any big problems.
