Pros

PTO, benefits, annual company wide offsite.

Cons

The list is almost too long… Leadership manipulates, gaslights, and pushes the fake narratives that will end up burning you if you act on them (example: “we are a feedback culture - you have to be comfortable giving and receiving feedback”…but if you dare, it will absolutely be held against you). Absolutely NO transparency from top down. Regardless of your performance, you will be on the chopping block if your salary is too high (which is what they use you to get you in the door). Leadership is insecure and questions/micromanages all the way down. You will spend 80% of your time explaining and justifying the work you do, only to have it doubted and questioned because leadership feels they can do it better. If you don’t have mental health issues before you join Hello Heart, you WILL after you join.

Pros

Exciting company with great culture and really strong growth trajectory. Making a real difference in heart health.

Cons

As with any rapidly growing company, there are processes that evolve during the growth - this is not for everyone, but those that enjoy staying nimble and growing fast thrive.

Pros

Unlimited PTO, fully remote, some great individuals that keep the company going. Great mission, fun annual all company offsites from what I've heard.

Cons

Terrible leadership that starts at the C level and trickles down to lower level managers. Managers have zero autonomy, so either have to be "yes" people or are exited out immediately. No strategy, and the YoY turnover shows this. They got rid of an entire department in the matter of a year, only to rehire and re-build with people that had no clue what they were signing up for. The CEO employs crazy tactics to prevent customers from churning (i.e. fly from Israel, where she lives, to different cities in the US and take pictures of places, things, etc that were mentioned by the customers showing them she just "happened" to be in the area and thought of them). Travel expectation for Sales an CS was ~80%, so if you have a family, significant other, pet, plant...whatever, kiss them goodbye. Oh, and the ridiculous "Keeper's Test" that's supposedly a litmus test for whether the company should keep you week over week? Complete joke. Even if you're passing the test, you'll be canned for another reason, with zero notice.
