Pros

Health-e Commerce is unlike any other company I've worked. We have evolved from start up culture to a mature organization while still having a team of nice people that work hard and have fun doing so. The work is career defining and the exposure to every level of the company is constant. HEC encourages employees to be involved in projects that would not be common at larger organizations and there is essentially no red tape. The cross-functional recognition through Bonusly is impressive and shows that employees have formed strong relationships even in a fully remote environment. The benefits are very competitive and the company offers flexible time off.

Cons

The company is still small by employee count and there is never a shortage of work to be done. Frequently feels like a 'grind' however the work is meaningful and important to the future growth of the business.

Pros

If you're FT, benefits are substantially better than many other companies and the job is fully remote. Most employees are very nice people and figure out ways to help each other.

Cons

I speak mostly for the marketing department: The work culture here used to be decent and team-oriented but since the company has been acquired by private equity, everything went downhill. People were replaced despite the previous hires were doing fine. Some contractors were loyal to the brand for years but were passed up for new hires and less qualified individuals. The only people who benefit are execs and directors. I do advise any current employees not to trust certain execs as nepotism is rampant and they're known to lie to your faces. It's awkward especially when the company has in-person off-site meetings every year to discuss efforts and team-building while making you feel important but at the end of the day, you will be let go due to hard times. It's been a known vicious cycle that occurs around every 2-3 years. There's no doubt that many people are diligent, hard workers who are committed to their work but the decisions being made are never transparent and never to benefit lower-rung employees. There is also a lot of fluff and job titles that need not to exist. It won't surprise me that the good benefits this company once had will start being cut to save costs to experiment on short-term trends, pointless transitions and useless middle-man positions.
