Pros

Two Chairs is one of the first places I’ve worked in tech where I have such high confidence that the company will exist in 5 years Strong funding and measured growth have been a recipe for success

Cons

Slow growth path for the company echoes in promotion cycles, more steady and measured than typical start up

Big culture shifts over time

Pros

Everyone at HQ, individually, cares deeply about our clinicians' and clients' experience. Strong, top down commitment to DEIB. Many leaders are compassionate and understanding. Really smart people. Very mission-driven culture. Lots of opportunity for remote work. I'm confident that the company is set up to succeed and have sustainable growth/scale.

Cons

Culture is driven on a team-by-team basis - if your executive or other senior leader has strong boundaries and clear priorities, that trickles down across the team. Unfortunately, the inverse is also true, which leads to burnout on certain teams. The culture around work-life balance, team bonding, and transparency has shifted over time, and the company feels much more opaque as it's gotten bigger. It's lost its flat-feeling structure, which is to be expected with the level of growth the company is attaining, but is nevertheless difficult to accept for someone that's been at the company some years, and has seen LT drift further and further away.

Pros

Two Chairs is filled with driven, caring people. We often disagree, but I feel strongly that that disagreement drives us towards our shared goal of access to exceptional mental healthcare. Balance is strong at Two Chairs, and I think of it as a 'choose your own adventure' in the sense that the effort you put in directly results in advancement. We're not perfect in the way that we work together, but we're constantly iterating on it, which leads to constant improvement. Leadership especially is responsive to feedback. For example, planning was difficult for very specific reasons one half. Those barriers were removed for the next planning cycle. Two Chairs consistently promotes internally, which is not true of all startups. The review cycle is clear, and I know what I need to do to advance. Our leadership is very fiscally responsible, which is why we're one of a very small group of health tech companies that has had no layoffs.

Cons

We're still striking the right balance on the overhead of how we organize ourselves. Questions like "how much work should we put in on planning vs executing" are still raised, and we have work to do there. That being said, the work work is being done.
