Pros

- Great benefits - Wellness card - Most direct peers are genuinely nice and fun to work with - Truly enjoyed being in wellness industry Pretty lax culture and HQ has nice campus. Most of the people are lovely and extremely nice. Got great experience from when it was super small 6 years ago, so stayed because of the career opp to continue growing experience.

Cons

- Not a lot of respectable leaders in management - Individual praise gets turned into group praise to protect feelings - Issues aren't taken seriously by HR or management Marketing team grew big and disconnected. Lots of stakeholders or program managers would give feedback that was more opinion but no one was making sure it had proof or reasoning behind it. Creative leadership when I left was at its worst. Leader who didn't really care about the team and hid behind everyone else's talents to mask the fact that they contributed nothing. Would blame the wrong people when things went wrong. Instead of recognizing the people who went above and beyond, everyone had to walk on eggshells to make sure everyone got the same amount of praise and recognition. You could work really hard or come in and do the bare minimum and it would all be to the same result. Lots of empty promises of career growth.

Pros

-Nice people to work with and flexible work schedule

Cons

No clear direction with company which influences the culture not being enjoyable and lousy management treating employees like kids. Red tape can get in the way as well. Training is horrible, product doesn't work, and pay is low. Just don't do it!

Pros

-Flexible work arrangements (depending on your manager) - work from home when you want -Really great people - basically everyone I worked both on my team and with other teams with was a decent human being -I was hourly, as in OT eligible, which is nearly unheard-of and really helped offset late-night work -My bosses were extremely assertive in making sure we had the work-life balance we needed and wanted -Bonus structure was tied to my team's performance, so it was something we could actually work towards and achieve -We had wide latitude to get the tools we needed to do our jobs, either a better keyboard or a better application/software/etc. -Great commute location (at least if you're from Jersey) -Breakfast, snacks, other stuff stocked and catered Wednesday breakfasts -Lots of communication between all departments - we all know what we're working on and how it all comes together -Not a bad benefits package - reasonable healthcare premiums, 401k match was never screwed with, bonus never got taken away -Workplace and life wellness is taken very seriously - there are useful seminars, wellness teams, etc.

Cons

-Salary was a bit low in the pay band, and was offset by RSUs which got fixed at an acquisition date strike price -HR didn't pay out even a fraction of my RSUs since I left two months before the vesting date - gone, poof, nothing, so -After Vista acquired Mindbody, we all had to take an IQ test, the results of which were averaged out per team and used as a minimum score to meet or beat if you want to be hired (e.g. if you're applying for a role with a team that had a high average score, you don't even get looked at if you don't beat it) -Way too metrics-focused from the top down in terms of IT security - percentage of vulnerable assets (regardless of how critical the vuln is) was treated with call-center style pressure to bring numbers down
