Pros

BetterUp is a mission-driven company where the values aren’t just words - they show up in how people work and lead. The culture fosters respect and curiosity, and the team is made up of some of the most thoughtful and talented people I’ve had the chance to work with. I’ve always felt supported in taking time off, and the flexibility to work remotely has been a huge plus. There are real opportunities for growth, both within your current path and in exploring new directions if your interests evolve. The work itself is often complex and meaningful, and I’ve consistently felt trusted to lead and deliver. I also deeply trust the CEO and leadership team to guide the company with integrity and a long-term view.

Cons

It’s a fast-paced environment, and the level of ownership and autonomy can feel intense at times. That said, for the right person, it’s incredibly rewarding.

Pros

- smartest, most thoughtful and kind people I've worked with. - Very intentional culture - all hands calls where strategy is discussed are always so transparent and insightful - fantastic mission and strong direction for the company

Cons

- intense work culture - you need to have boundaries and be able to stay firm on them or the work will not stop. My advice is to not attach your value/worth to the work and find intrinsic motivation for the work. As other reviews have stated, it is not for everyone but the company is transparent about that - work will at times be intense and difficult, but that is at times necessary to accomplish what the company wants to
