Beware of fake reviews. This is the last place you'd want to work.

Pros
Colleagues are good people. Hybrid work model.
Cons
Leadership issues: Each founder has a different take on where the product should go, and they’re not aligned. This causes major confusion across teams and leads to wasted effort. One founder mostly brags about his podcast and frequently changes direction without clear rationale. This creates a sense of instability. Internally. It is evident that even he isn’t sure what the product should be. Lack of originality: Much of the product seems inspired by other popular platforms. While that's not inherently bad, it's misleading when leadership claims the product quality and original thinking is “on par with Apple”. The execution just doesn’t reflect that. Toxic culture: There’s a lot of behind-the-scenes maneuvering. Backchannel conversations and sudden reversals are common. Trust is low, and employees are often left out of key decisions until it's too late. These things happen at larger companies, but they are able to do this with extremely small number of employees. Zero diversity: The team is overwhelmingly from one geographic background. There’s no real effort to build an inclusive or diverse culture, Lying: The CEO is a serial liar. He is good at saying things that you want to hear and feel good. He will deceive you whenever he needs to. Do not trust this person.

9moAt Bettermode, we believe in transparency, integrity, and building something meaningful, together. While I won't speculate on who wrote this review, it’s worth noting that several reviews have recently appeared under roles we haven’t hired for. This pattern is unfortunate, and frankly, misleading to those genuinely trying to learn about our company.
Startups are hard. Things don’t always go the way we hope. But when we part ways with people, it’s our hope they move forward with the same respect and professionalism we try to extend to them.
I’m incredibly proud of our team, our product, and the culture we’re building. It’s not perfect, and we continue to learn and evolve, but we’re committed to creating something that matters, and we won’t be distracted from that mission.

Pros
While many companies still seem to be struggling with the shift toward remote work, Tribe has nailed it perfectly. They offer subsidies for setting up a home office, flexible work hours, great benefits, and the company culture is fantastic. There are interest-based discussion channels and local meet-ups on weekends for those in close proximity to one another. The onboarding process was intuitive and completely painless, and they did a great job of making me feel welcome and like part of the time as soon as I joined. I also really appreciated how approachable the leadership team is, whether you're a senior manager or an intern, they're always willing to hear people out. The mission of the company (helping people help each other) also really resonated with me, and everything they do seems to be shot through with that same optimism.
Cons
Honestly, I have no complaints. The only reason I left was because I got an offer for a more senior position and even then, it wasn't an easy decision.
