Pros

There are some kind, and incredibly hard-working employees there.

Cons

The key people I worked with in management were unhelpful, confusing, and straight up rude. Their actions were contradictory to the values they claimed to behold.

Pros

People here are genuinely passionate about Chorus’ mission. The work is meaningful and I appreciate being surrounded by others who truly care about the people and communities that will use these tools. On an individual level, the managers I’ve worked with have been supportive of my growth. I especially appreciate the autonomy and trust I’m given to take ownership of my own work and explore areas I’m interested in developing further. offers unlimited PTO, mental health days, and flexible/hybrid schedules

Cons

Like many startups, there are definitely growing pains, shifting priorities, and rapid changes as the company evolves. I think leadership is actively working towards changes. That said, in Chorus’ case, I feel optimistic about the direction the company is headed and confident that good things are ahead Interview process was long, but the conversations did feel meaningful and intentional

Pros

The mission is noble, but one must lead by example.

Cons

The CEO lacks business acumen and leadership skills. You can tell a company is “winging it” when it feels like the hiring priority was on HR and Marketing rather than financial leadership like a CFO or MBA/business. Just look at our staff page, every employee is listed there publicly. Maybe that's why we have the problems we currently face today. CEO seems to stay in his ivory tower, not really taking many questions or input directly. Not really interacting with regular employees. Makes decisions seemingly unilaterally since we dont know who is involved in these decisions. The frequency of layoffs every few months has been a hit to morale. A very absentee CEO. The company's internal culture does not seem to reflect the mental health values it sells to clients. CEO stays in his ivory tower, never taking any questions or input directly. Never bothers to interact with regular employees. Makes big executive decisions seemingly unilaterally. Firings every quarter (great for morale), asks the employees to find ways to save on costs as if that's our job. A very absentee CEO. Ironically, a psychiatrist starts a mental health company, yet does not prioritize the mental health, morale, and well being of his own employees.
