Pros

Great, straight-A-student quality teams, just absolutely full of smart, compassionate, overachievers. Good vibes, good people, and the mission (inasmuch as you believe in teleheath's' ability to transform healthcare) is felt. Good pay, good benefits.

Cons

Well, they laid off a bunch of us after assuring us that there wouldn't be cuts. I had 3 different roles in a year. I contributed, showed up, performed, got positive reviews from teammates and bosses, and in no way could any of that contribute to continued employment at Ro. A complete lack of vision—adding products, subtracting products. Committing to marketing strategies and changing them for safer strategies. An insanely conservative "review board" that makes it difficult to do work that simply explains the product(s), and then you look at competitors like hims&hers, and see them kicking our butts with marketing ideas you've had rejected by the ludicrously risk-averse board of doctors and lawyers that seem incapable of weighing risk and liability.
