Hi there - We appreciate your feedback and are glad that you felt supported from a compensation & benefits perspective. We know that the layoffs were a shock. In terms of how quickly people were exited from the company, we wish we could have given impacted Ro’ers a longer transition time, but given our obligation to protect patient healthcare information, it was a decision we had to make for the security of our patients. Ro exists to help our patients achieve their health goals, and weight management is our second most popular treatment request. Ro has made Plenity, the FDA-cleared weight management aid approved for use by the largest number of adults affected by overweight and obesity, available nationwide through our platform. We are proud of the work we’ve done to help patients achieve their healthcare goals, and will continue our focus of building accessible, impactful, and trusted care that people want. We hope you felt comfortable giving this feedback to your manager and/or People Partner during your time at Ro. If you have additional feedback, you’re welcome to reach out to people@ro.co – we’re always happy to chat.

Pros

The pay and ability to work remotely. Also they let you use a lab top which is nice.

Cons

Favoritism. I hit all my metrics and then some, 174% over and yet my contract was not extended and they would not provide one reason why other than their blanket corporate statement.
