Pros

Yes, we have gone through a lot of recent changes as a company. We are trying to find our new identity as Sharecare. These are exciting times for us; innovation, outside the box thinking opportunities, a chance to impact a culture shift. I think more than ever those who want to step up as leaders have a huge opportunity to do so and be heard, at least in my area of the business. Change is uncomfortable but perspective and attitude are everything. I work with some of the smartest more talented people that I can actually also call friends. Other pros: - Generous PTO - Employer matched HSA - Flexibility for work at home when needed (in my role) and encouraged work-life balance from my leaders - Transparent and approachable leadership - Talented colleagues

Cons

- Leadership development- we are lacking leadership development opportunities. We tend to move leaders into leadership roles without the well-rounded support they need to be successful and thriving leaders. We are still in a bit of a reactive state vs proactive in this case. - Well-Being improvement opportunities- we are currently at the cusp of reestablishing what our well-being priorities are at Sharecare and how we implement some well-being activities, I know it’s a leadership priority right now, it has just been missing the last year and a half or so and still does not exist. But I know it’s coming! - Because of the recent minimizing of resources, I have colleagues that are doing the work of multiple roles. Some have lots of trouble prioritizing projects and managing workload because of our smaller teams.

We truly appreciate the time you took to write this thoughtful review. Your viewpoint on the changes we’re all navigating is both refreshing and encouraging. We do recognize that growth leads to change, which can lead to the challenges you’ve referenced (such as shifting job responsibilities). That said, it’s our colleagues’ ability to see change as positive that will play a critical role in achieving the objectives we’ve set forth, including our ability to impact well-being on a global scale. We also recognize we still have work to do, and it’s important our colleagues know that the things you’ve mentioned above – development opportunities and well-being support for our colleagues – are both top-of-mind for our leaders. If you ever have suggestions of how to positively impact our business and/or colleague experience, we encourage you to share those with your leaders and team members. Again – many thanks for the review. Keep up the important work you do and your great outlook!

Pros

Easy environment. Work and life balance.

Cons

The old technology on the software is kind of old. Need to move to something newer.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. We see you've moved on to a new opportunity, but are certainly glad your role at Sharecare allowed you a positive work-life balance. We recognize that as a key element of well-being and are glad that was your experience. Without specifics with regards to what area of technology you're referring to, it's difficult to address your feedback. That said, we trust that prior to your exit, you shared this feedback with the appropriate Sharecare leaders. Thanks again for the review. Best of luck to you.

Pros

Upper management 'claims' to want to change the company for the better.

Cons

-Serious lack of communication across the company. -Increase demands, responsibilities, duties of employees (involuntarily) without any compensation. -Taking away any team building time, benefits which goes againts practicing what we preach and making for a hostile and stressful work environment. - Push for increase micromanaging of front line colleagues, creating a sweatshop call center mentality. - Recent and frequent layoffs of long standing employees only to turn around and hire more employees.

Thank you for taking the time to share your viewpoints. It’s clear you have a lot of energy around some of the changes that have recently impacted your specific role. While we value the feedback, for these concerns to be actionable, we’d strongly encourage you to share these with your leaders. Regarding change, we recognize that it can be difficult – and we are a growing, dynamic company that is going through a lot of it. Two elements of change that we ask all our colleagues to bear in mind: it is always with purpose, and it’s necessary to grow our company and customer base – which will allow us the opportunity to impact well-being on a global scale. Embedded in that growth will always be a commitment to provide our customers with the best resources and support available. Thank you for the impact you've had on our members.
