Business Outlook

Pros

A free membership is great if you use it. The team is big and steps in to cover each other's vacations, etc.

Cons

Yoga classes in a corporate fitness club is a different experience than a private yoga studio. It's not necessarily a con, but it is different.

Pros

- Great to work for a company that prioritizes a “Healthy Way Of Life” - Beautiful corporate offices - Complimentary Life Time membership for all employees

Cons

- The company is at the whim of the CEO - Sr management is polluted with “friends” of the CEO, & has an “old boys club” feel - Individual contributors are expected to pivot & alter plans to accommodate poorly-communicated ideas from sr management - Difficult to inspire change when the majority of the corporate office has either been there 10+ years, or <2years - Management is heavy-handed, but struggle to communicate vision, insights, etc, - Very few leaders, mostly managers (people that “lead” vs “manage”)
