Pros

Central Bath offices Casual dress code Some really talented, friendly and genuine people work there

Cons

Constant rounds of redundancies Company seems obsessed with replacing experienced staff with graduates Nigh on impossible to get promoted unless you work in sales or are in the "higher management clique". Terrible salaries in most departments, huge discrepancies in salary within teams leading to low morale and resentment. Most departments are understaffed leading to high stress and burnout. Most managers are there for the money but don't actually want to manage people - poor performance often goes unchallenged and becomes a burden to the remaining team members.

Pros

shiny looking website they spent an exuberant amount of money on

Cons

They exploit their employees ferociously. If you love yourself or your life - do not work for this company. Clients - don't sign up! They do programs and pretend it's custom. They spend hundreds of thousands to hire new shiny CEOs but pay their coaches around $40k/year to maintain 100 clients. You are not special - they just put up a lot of metrics to pretend to make you feel that way. No coach can actually connect with 100 clients and write a personalized program. That's why the "management" pushes coaches to use as many templates as they can. They do big lay offs of any coaches who don't want to maintain 100+ people. They also are actively working to use any/all Apple Watch data to sell and use in any way they can monetize. So DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR APPLE WATCH DATA. It's smoke and mirrors and not anything actually useful (especially for the pricepoint they are asking!)
