I left Nurture Life for various reason, but mainly because I didn’t feel comfortable following co-founders that have zero experience in food manufacturing, no track record for success, and have nothing but a vague idea about running a business. The husband and wife duo (co-founders) both love to pat themselves on the back when things are good and blame others because they can't admit when they're wrong.
It’s chaotic.
Expect chaos every day you arrive to work. From a broken air conditioner on a hot summer day to the terrible stench of grease traps being cleaned. Let’s not forget the internet going out and a rat in the office.
Responsibilities.
On top of the stress, long hours and low pay, you will have a lot of duties. You are expected to clean the office, load/unload the dishwasher, clear out refrigerators, and vacuum before investors arrive.
Employee benefits.
Nurture Life is full of financial flubs. First, our wages were off by thousands of dollars due to mistakes around health insurance deductions. Then more recently, there has been multiple wrongdoings with the 401(k) plan. Nurture Life does not offer unlimited paid time off (one of the top benefits that startups offer) and working from home is a not an option.
