Pros

Bellingham is an awesome little city. And some truly great people do work at Faithlife.

Cons

Oh, where to begin? Multiple people who have now left the company, including myself, are coping with repercussions of working for unsteady, unfair, and unethical leadership. This includes workplace trauma that manifests itself years later, PTSD, and other mental health issues stemmed from problematic leadership at this company. On paper, working for Faithlife looked really good. Unlimited vacation? (Spoiler alert: it’s not.) flexible working hours and WFH options before it was the norm? (Also, no.) A collaborative and healthy environment where there is growth opportunity? (Um. Nope! We’ll get to that.) In reality, Faithlife is a company attempting to hold on to the startup vibes when it is way beyond that. Because of this, it’s hindering itself and its employees. One of the biggest concerns was the lack of HR/“employee services” as a functioning department. Because of the lack of this functionality, there were so many issues that we’re simply not okay and never properly addressed. I witnessed inappropriate jokes, threats, verbal abuse, blatant sexism, and blame placed unfairly. Departments were also prioritized over others. For instance, some revealed that Dev salaries were significantly higher than Marketing. This caused a lot of tensions when underfunded departments were told that “there was no money for raises” and that they should be grateful to get 2-3% as top performers. The lack of transparency regarding salaries is alarming and caused a lot of grief. Faithlife had layoffs in 2015 that left a negative lasting imprint on those left behind. Lots of employees operated off of the fear of being let go unexpectedly, and management did little to attempt to quell that culture. I have heard from others that the culture has progressively gone downhill since the CEO was asked to step away. I have also seen a large percentage of my former colleagues choose to leave. There was also an overarching fear of retaliation for speaking out. So, I’m glad to see that people are beginning to be transparent about their experiences. A lot of us had a tough time working here.

Thank you for taking time to submit a review. You are right, we have some truly great employees! I am sorry to hear that you and some of your former colleagues did not enjoy your time at Logos. We have made a number of positive changes over the past few years to improve the employee experience and our efforts to improve culture will never cease. I am not sure the timing of when you left, but here are a few things that have recently changed that address some of your feedback. We now have a People Team (HR + Employee Services) and are introducing a new employee handbook to ensure clarity on our expectations around performance and behavior. Your comments around inappropriate jokes, threats, verbal abuse, blatant sexism, and blame placed unfairly are alarming to me as we do not tolerate this type of behavior and promptly investigate claims of this nature. We recently completed a compensation study and made adjustments to many of our employees salaries; in addition to a higher average merit increase (than what you had listed above). We have assembled a talented, experienced leadership team focused on both the customer and employee experience. While none of these recent changes can impact the way you feel about your experience with Logos, I truly hope that when you speak to your former colleagues who are still employees, they are able to share with you the many things we are doing to make Logos a great place to work.

Pros

Nice co-workers. Nice buildings, highly challenging. Lots of room for growth.

Cons

The work environment at Logos is strange. In some of the departments, particularly marketing, it feels like extended college, most of the employees are under the age of 30. This is probably because the marketing department underpays most of its employees and the ones who are willing to work hard for low pay are typically college grads in their first job. For a company that boasts about being the "best Christian place to work," it seemed like overall, stress was really high, pay was too low and there was low morale for the employees.

I think you're right that in some departments we didn't have the right balance of experienced leaders and new, 'first-job' team members. This year we've already put a lot of energy into re-organizing the marketing department, and we're working to hire some more experienced leaders as well as to improve leadership training for people already on the team.

Pros

Intelligent coworkers. Open environment where you can talk to almost anyone if they're free. Free snacks and drinks.

Cons

Passive aggressive behavior to avoid confrontations. No formal PTO and pressure to not take time off even to avoid bereavement. Very poor work/life balance. Hit or miss team structure or quality. Little inter-team communication. Expensive Healthcare for family.
