Pros

I love selling the BetterUp platform. The people, culture and leaders are some of the brightest and best I have ever worked with. The company and product leaders are visionary and are always evolving our product to align to what our clients will need today and tomorrow, and our customers are renewing and expanding their partnership with BetterUp. The sales culture here is high-trust, high-autonomy, and high empathy. I feel like I can be myself with buyers and colleagues and there is no archetype of what makes a successful seller here. I always feel supported and enabled to do my best work. I have sold at many high-growth startups. This is by far the best experience.

Cons

We are moving fast and working here requires that I am strongly rooted in my personal purpose and passion for what we do. I believe in our product. I believe in our vision. I believe in our leaders. This allows me to bring my best self and performance to this work, amidst the rapid pace at which we are growing and evolving our product. I also get a dedicated executive coach to ensure I am safeguarding my well-being, authenticity, and performance at work. This is huge privilege and I cannot imagine working somewhere where I do not have access to a professional coach. BetterUp provides this resource, and it's been a game-changer for my personal and professional life.

Pros

Nearly 8 years in, and the work still pulls me forward. What keeps me at BetterUp is that the problems are genuinely hard and genuinely worth solving. I came from engineering, so I'm wired to care about infrastructure, not just features, and this is one of the rare places where you can build something foundational and actually see it move metrics, clear escalations, and unblock a whole go-to-market motion. The mission isn't decorative here. I can feel the thread between the work and the outcome. BetterUp also trusts you to figure things out across lanes. I've written SQL, prototyped with AI tools, facilitated workshops, and co-designed vendor strategy, all as a PM, because the culture doesn't penalize curiosity or reaching into adjacent territory. And honestly, some of my closest friendships came out of this place. The people I work with, on engineering, on cross-functional teams, and in peer mentorship, are people I genuinely learn from and, in some cases, people I can't imagine not having in my life. That combination of meaningful infrastructure work, real trust, and people who challenge you and become your people is not easy to find. The benefits span beyond general work-life-balance, if you're curious about something, there's always an open door to learn and contribute. As a woman in tech, I cherish the fact that our colleagues listen to women, and our insight is taken into account instead of just ignored. It's nice to feel safe at work, able to speak your mind freely.

Cons

If you want a boring job, this is not the place for you.
