If you are considering working here — do not. If you are considering becoming a corporate partner — do not. You’d be supporting a culture of toxic positivity that cannot practice what it preaches. Leadership is wildly out of touch and more concerned with the optics of doing well by doing good than actually making meaningful impact. Like others have mentioned, they play favorites, expect you to bend over backwards and make decisions with a lack of transparency. Will also add that many of the strategic decisions on how to grow the business have been questionable at best and highlight the lack of business acumen the leadership team has. There’s also massive problems when it comes to pay equity and transparency. Finally, much of the talk around wellness and DEI is for show. It’s often expected of employees to work late, work while sick and to do it with a smile. There’s also a culture of passive aggression despite claiming to embrace a culture of consistent feedback

Management is not transparent with how they make decisions about anything. It is very clear that they think some initiatives are more important than others, but the favoritism is never explained. You can spend months working on big projects, and have the entire division folded without ever being part of the conversation. Employees are selectively punished for breaking haphazard HR rules. The return-to-office rules and remote work policy are constantly changing and disadvantage employees who did not have the means to move out of nyc or san francisco during the pandemic. The entire staff is burned out. The company often talks about work culture with its clients, and helps them think through how to address it and build a humane workplace. It gets demoralizing to sit in on events discussing the topic with clients, and not have serious solutions be proposed at home. We get zoom parties and balloons, but serious structural help is not discussed.
