Pros

Generous PTO, great benefits, and plenty of commission and bonus opportunities for top performers. The best part of this company is the support that management continually offers.

Cons

Fast-paced work environment, so may not be a good fit if you aren't very adaptable to change.

Pros

Amazing company culture Great WLB Decent pay Fully remote Working for RealSelf was honestly so enjoyable. I love working on web applications, so this was a great role for me. Some legacy code in PHP and Angular, but moving towards React. My team was so supportive and we had a lot of fun together. Remote work was a huge plus for me. Good communication between manager and team. All of the software managers were really friendly and open.

Cons

Questionable business decisions in C level Unclear goals Uncertain financial state of the company I'm really not sure that this business will survive. It survived for 15+ years, but COVID really hit them hard and they've had a difficult time recovering. If you want job security, I really don't recommend working here. They just did a massive layoff, getting rid of 50% of employees. This is the third layoff they've had in the last ~7 years, which is a lot to me. I thought I was safe, but they got rid of people who had been working at the company for 5+ years. Don't join this sinking ship.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate candid feedback. With our 2021 acquisitions of Your New Self and Tajmeeli, RealSelf is a global brand. We now reach a broader and more distributed set of consumers and customers. Our 2022 plan is focused on delivering innovation and new value across our platform. This plan also requires us to reassess our investments and align spending to our global objectives - the recent reduction represented 13% of our enterprise workforce. These decisions are always difficult and never taken lightly. We’re grateful to our past-employees and for their dedication to supporting RealSelf’s brand purpose to empower every person to realize their most confident self. - Jeff Kizilbash, Interim CEO
