I am sorry to hear about your experience at Further Food.
As the CEO of Further Food, I value and take seriously all feedback.
These have been an exciting couple of years at Further Food as we’ve grown quickly. You are correct, we are fast-paced and we work hard to create amazing products and customer experiences. We also highly value personal time (we have unlimited vacations) and actively support remote work options. Our team is mostly women, and we support and encourage work/life balance and flexible schedules, as this makes for healthier and happier employees!
Some of your feedback is perplexing, making me wonder if you’ve actually worked with me or our team. We have had many interns and contractors work with us, none of whom I personally knew prior to interviews. All our current employees are “outsiders” as in I didn’t know any of them previously. We are a close-knit team, and everyone treats everyone with respect, curiosity, and openness. I personally spend a lot of time with every person who has worked in the Further Food ecosystem: training them and helping them to understand our company’s values, products, and our greater mission: to help everyone eat better and go further...to live healthier, active lives.
Regarding your comment about salary, we have flagged this review as containing incorrect information. We’ve never had a “CMO” at Further Food or any full-time C- level employee earning a salary of less than $30,000.
Please feel free to reach out to me personally if you wish to discuss your experience and concerns. Wishing you the best of luck.
Lillian Zhao, CEO of Further Food
