Upstream USA reviews

Thanks for sharing your experience working at Upstream. We are glad you appreciate our competitive salary and compensation structure, our generous COLA increases, our comprehensive healthcare benefits and that you enjoy working with our great staff! In order to ensure opportunities for training, teaming and togetherness, our leadership team believes it is essential to gather in person twice a year. This is part of our culture! Upstream is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion (ED+I) as a cornerstone of our work to increase equitable access to the full range of contraception methods nationwide. EDI requires a willingness to listen, reflect, and change so we build a culture that celebrates and serves everyone. These values are a part of our core operating principles. We strive for diversity, mitigating bias and take an intentional approach to include individuals from underserved populations in our candidate pipelines for all open roles and will continue to make diversity sourcing a priority. We are proud of the diversity of our leadership team and are committed to improving the diversity at all levels of our organization. Our recruiting team is deeply committed to our EDI priorities and we are making progress everyday. Our meeting free Fridays are valued by all employees, but occasionally the needs of the organization and our healthcare center partners may be prioritized over our meeting free Friday schedule. If you feel that Friday meetings are no longer an exception but a pattern, we would encourage you to reach out to your people manager, our human resources team or our VP of Equity Diversity and Inclusion, where you can also discuss any concerns you may have around any implicit bias or micro-aggressions you may have experienced or witnessed. We take these concerns very seriously and conduct mandatory microaggression training for all staff members.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review on Glassdoor. As a valued employee, we really appreciate your recognition of the many passionate people at our organization, our robust benefit package, competitive compensation and our approach to career growth and progression for our employees at Upstream. Please know we value your frank feedback regarding our culture and evolving work environment. We believe in listening and learning. A lot of work has been made in critical areas to build us for scale and expansion. These transformations are a journey - and we appreciate the spots that may feel tough. This is where we have worked very hard to communicate the journey and milestones ahead. Equally, we encourage our employees to reach out to their leadership team or anyone on our new People Experience team (including our Chief People Officer) with any concerns for deeper clarity so we can work towards finding resolution. Our newly designed organizational structure and leadership team has been intentionally established to improve decision making, further strengthen our organizational stability, culture and our approach to advancing our work with our healthcare center partners during these pandemic times. Building a strong EDI approach at our organization is a journey and there have been several accomplishments over the past 6 months alone which we shared and are committed to the future work as part of the EDI roadmap and accountabilities. Our newly created OneUpstream Values drive us collectively every day. These were created by Upstreamers!! No organization is perfect but they represent who we are and what we strive to be! We are laser focused as an organization on strengthening reproductive care and reducing unplanned pregnancies across the U.S. Our mission is our Northstar and it guides all we do as an organization. Thanks again for your feedback. We consistently review all comments to understand experiences and learnings!
