Pros

Great product trying to help people live healthier lives. Equitable pay for production roles in the tech industry. Great computers and equipment to do my job. Handled WFH efficiently and wanted to do best job keeping employees safe

Cons

•Major Company layoffs of 35%. •Entire departments scrapped after spending uber amounts of money on having content studios in both LA and NYC. •No clear cut WFH policy long-term. I moved out to San Francisco only to work from my living room. The company never even required me to go into an office. I could have done my job just as effectively anywhere in the country. •Was laid off and still receiving emails from the company. The company also never checked in on if I get to keep my Tonal I was given. • Company had a bunch of empty offices and then laid off 35% of staff. The outlook doesn't look too promising.

Pros

There aren't any benefits to working here. You'd just be wasting your time.

Cons

Tonal lacks direction and structure. Communication is terrible, roles are vague and often overlap, expectations are unclear, management has no idea what it's doing, leadership has no long-term plan set in place, and every decision they make is driven by ego and profit.
