Pros

The two pros are the people, not including VP level and higher, and the services provided to the communities served by the care teams. A majority of the people doing all the work at TimelyCare are intelligent, passionate, and a delight to work with. Across almost every team the staff are highly motivated by the desire to be best in class in their respective areas and provide best in class services to diverse higher ed communities.

Cons

The "exec/leadership" team. Period. That is the con. That con has led to a mass exodus of a majority of the best and brightest talent and an inexplicable riddle for the exec team as to why. You! It's you! The call is coming from inside the board meeting! Many reviews recently have highlighted unrealistic goals, a disregard for work/life balance, a stated mental health mission while simultaneously destroying the mental health of employees, a retaliatory feedback loop, and a roadmap that is about as easy to navigate as the routes on ice road truckers. I could absolutely call out specific issues and people, however I believe there is one in particular that sums up the environment perfectly. While preaching accountability, dedication, and transparency those same ideals are not applied to themselves. Executive retreats where execs are unreachable on the CEO's boat are the norm while they are complaining staff aren't working hard enough during all hands. C-suite execs who have not come close to achieving goals in years are safe while hardworking staff screaming for support and clarity are terminated or quit in despair. This is a bleak landscape im painting and it is actually very bleak. The cherry on top of this particular sundae is the toxic positivity spewing from the kool-aid stained mouths of the "leaders" about the mission and how great it is to be a part of something so positive to the mental health of so many while actively destroying the mental health of the people who wanted to be there to do exactly that and cannot continue anymore.

Pros

TimelyCare has a strong mission focused on improving student well-being, which makes the work feel meaningful and impactful. The people are collaborative, supportive, and genuinely care about both employees and the populations we serve. Leadership is invested in growth, and there are opportunities to take on new challenges and expand your skills. The company has embraced flexibility and continues to evolve as it scales.

Cons

Like many fast-growing organizations, priorities can shift quickly, which sometimes creates ambiguity around processes and decision-making.

It is meaningful to see our mission, people, and culture reflected in your experience. We believe great work happens when talented people are trusted, supported, and connected to a purpose that matters. As TimelyCare continues to grow, we are focused on creating clarity, investing in our people, and building on the culture that has helped us expand our impact for students and campus communities across the country.

Pros

I genuinely don’t think there are any other than the people (who they’re burning out or forcing out)

Cons

To the Glassdoor responses from TimelyCare: “we found no record of the specific incidents referenced” is a strange thing to say about anonymous reviews. What exactly are you looking into — Slack messages? Zoom recordings? The implication that you’re investigating who wrote these reviews is more revealing than anything the reviewer said. The irony is that the very culture described in every negative review — retaliation against anyone who speaks up — is exactly why employees can’t give honest feedback internally and have to resort to anonymous posts in the first place. And then those posts get publicly discredited. I’ve been gone over a year and I’m still untangling what this place did to my sense of self at work. That doesn’t happen at healthy companies. Good luck to everyone still there.

We hear the concern behind this review. Anonymous feedback can reflect experiences people may not have felt comfortable sharing elsewhere, and that is important for us to recognize. We read reviews in full, pay attention to recurring themes, and use feedback from multiple sources to better understand where trust, communication, and support need to improve. Our focus is not on identifying anonymous reviewers, but on understanding feedback and continuing to strengthen the employee experience for current team members.
