Pros

Our product actually changes people's lives and the narrative in business around the intersection of developing your people, performance and well being. The team here is inspired and inspiring. They're also great to work with and committed to a vision that helps bring BetterUp's mission to as many people as possible. This is a passionate and hard working team. The amount of growth opportunity is huge. There are super talented people to learn from and everyone gets a coach! I feel like I've excelled as a result of working with my coach and it helps me maintain levels of growth and peak performance.

Cons

Selling a new product, in an early market is not easy. Learnings are fast, not every attempt is a slam dunk. Some fail. Pivots and failures are part of the journey. Change is a constant and some of the changes are stressful. The sales cycle is complex, multi stakeholder, long and needs to rooted at the exec level. That makes deals exciting but hard to execute on.

Pros

I have enjoyed coaching a number of members here over the years.

Cons

Too many to name… they really seem to be on a downhill slope when they have to keep repeating that many coaches have low workloads now but it’s because they have changed the business strategy… they do have coaches tagged to that new strategy but it’s mysterious how they got those opportunities… they like to hide behind the idea that the algorithm makes decisions on workload but that’s BS to an extent.
