Pros

Nice office space, good coworkers (aside from people at the top).

Cons

Company morale is low, things never really recovered after the RIF last year. Plus additional layoffs kept under the radar since then have everyone still on edge. Hard to trust leadership given immaturity and repeated missteps. And the latest emphasis on weight loss feels like a reverse robin hood story, we're making these drugs available for the rich, but the news keeps saying they are in short supply. Feels wrong.

I’m so sorry to hear that you haven’t been having a great experience at Ro. It’s true that we had to make some tough decisions with regard to team size and structure last year, and like any company in today’s climate, we have continued to make changes on a smaller scale if and when needed. We’ve always been transparent about this with those immediately impacted and all leadership team members receive talking points to share context with their teams about changes of any size. If you’re willing to talk, it would help to learn more about what immaturity and missteps you’ve been observing - I’d love to learn if there are specific areas where we can improve. I’d also love to talk more about your perception of the Ro Body program - the way we’re approaching this actually increases access vs limiting it to a select few. If you’re up for talking further, feel free to email or Slack me at any time. Best, Saman Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer

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.
