Pros

- Flexible work hours/ability to work remotely - Excellent parental leave benefits (a rarity) - Clear line of sight between work and company mission - Emotionally intelligent leadership - Company has put great effort into connecting remote coaches so that there are opportunities to connect daily online and every 3 months or so in person. - Management is responsive. If something isn't working it gets remedied fairly quickly. They do solicit feedback on an ongoing basis.

Cons

- Pay. It astounds me the level of talent Omada is able to attract for the poor pay. The majority of coaches are RDs, licensed mental health practitioners, certified coaches and personal trainers, physical therapists, etc. There appears to be no difference in pay between experienced, highly credentialed coaches and entry level coaches. It's my belief that the ability to work remotely and work flexible hours is what initially attracts top talent. However, in the past year the flexibility has declined due to added work/required trainings, additional meetings, and target metrics. The trade off seems to be becoming less attractive. Their explanation for the poor pay is that they are offering compensation that is competitive with the average industry standard. For a company that strives to offer the best product and service and revolutionize health care, this is not good enough to retain top talent. Many highly experienced coaches are left feeling like their education/certifications don't matter. - 90% of coaches are female, yet, a good majority of higher responsibility roles are male. It appears that males are promoted more often and more quickly than females in the company. - Little to no opportunity for advancement. It appears that the same people continuously get selected for special projects and opportunities. There is poor visibility into special projects, and many times coaches find out about special projects after the fact. - In my experience there has not been an effort or ongoing conversation by my manager to align my talent/career goals to present or future opportunities in the company. Conversations tend to be met with enthusiasm but no follow up.

Pros

Lots of smart people, great mission, digital health company that's balancing clinical evidence with tech growth.

Cons

Less of a con, more of a heads up to make sure your role is truly valued during the interview process. Try to gauge how much cross-functional buy-in is needed for you to have impact. As with most startups, layoffs happen and if you're struggling to get projects started because there's no internal support, your role is at risk.
