Pros

The people by far is the biggest pro! Very intelligent, hard-working, and (mostly) cool/kind people worked at ClassPass. Health benefits are great and offices are beautiful. They also promote a healthy lifestyle which includes lots of free workouts!

Cons

Nepotism and favoritism is extremely prevalent. Some of the most hard working people and strong leaders fall by the wayside to people that the CEO and leadership team 'like' and hang out with outside of work. Very low pay and internal promotions are usually only a 1-2% increase. It is a good company to "grow" your career in terms of title. However, you will never get paid competitively at CP no matter what level you are at. You are asked to come on to the team and "believe in the mission" despite how low they pay. The mission was great but then COVID-19 happened. Also, do not plan on striking it big here in terms of stock. They don't offer competitive stock options anymore and most current, excelling employees were granted 'additional stock' at their annual reviews and never received it. In fact, all employees that were granted additional stock and then let go during COVID never received any of the additional stocks that they were granted over eight months ago.

Pros

There's some nice benefits, like ClassPass credits, good insurance, and remote.

Cons

First and foremost, if you're a POC, you need to stay far away from this place. There is absolutely no diversity, and majority of the sales org, including the leaders, are white women. The managers lack skill, and don't know how to sell or manage. They only became managers because of their connections or because they were there in the early days of ClassPass and stayed long enough to get promoted. Nothing based on merit or skill. The sales culture is very churn and burn. The retention rate is so low, and this company is like a revolving door. You become a "veteran" or senior employee if you have worked there longer than 4 months. They have extremely unrealistic goals for the sales org, and the leads are awful. And it's because the company is terrible, and doesn't invest in partner services or support, so gyms and salons tend to have a bad experience because the resources and support they have for them are abysmal. Not to mention the bad reputation that ClassPass has; if you call a lead that has been called before, you will get extremely frustrated owners. They will tell you that ClassPass reps are harassing them by constantly calling, but that is what you are taught to do as a rep. To wrap it all up, there is no diversity, incompetent leaders, and bad reputation.
