Selfhacked Reviews

I've been working for SelfHacked for about 6 months now, and so far it has been an overwhelmingly positive experience: >>> Flexible Hours: As long as you're getting work done you can more or less set your own schedule, which is great. >>> Plenty of Autonomy: There are lots of different projects going on, and if you have ideas for or interest in a particular project, you'll often be given a chance to participate in it -- which means you can easily work your way towards specific projects that you're interested in. (This also makes coworkers very pleasant to work with, as company morale is quite high since pretty much everyone is working on stuff that they're personally engaged with.) >>> Good Work is Valued: People who bring value to the company get acknowledged for their good work, and -- in my own experience at least -- this has also been reflected directly in terms of pay, which can be quite generous if you're producing quality work. >>> Opportunity for Advancement: Everyone on the team is always on the lookout for new talent, and is encouraged to provide input on new employees that are worth promoting (for example, I was promoted to an editorial position after writing just 2 or 3 articles; and I've since been joined by several other newcomers who went through similarly rapid rises up the ranks themselves). So if you're good at whatever it is you do, you can count on being recognized for it. I'd also note that it's not true that new employees are asked for "free work" before being hired... or at least, this has never been the case since I've been here. As an editor I work with new writers all the time, and even those (relatively few) whose first writing assignments are deemed unusable for the site still get fully paid for their work (I would know because us editors submit the payment requests for the writers they work with, so I've seen this occur first-hand). So maybe this was the case at some point in the past -- I don't know -- but in any case it's certainly not true now.

Working at SelfHacked has been great because it's allowed me the career flexibility I desired while also providing the opportunity to live out my mission to help others. The people working here truly care a lot about helping people take their health into their own hands and providing people with science-backed information so that they can make informed health decisions. Everyone I've worked with at the company has been great and even though we are a fully remote company, I still feel like I've been able to build positive relationships and great connections with my co-workers. I've only been here about 7 months, but already I've seen the company grow a lot, add new features to our products and improve many of the processes in place. I believe that SelfHacked has a great future ahead of it and I'm honored to be a part of it!
