Thank you for sharing this direct and honest feedback with us. I’m saddened to read that you believe you are inadequately compensated for the work you do. Our HR and Compensation teams do thorough research to ensure that all of our Gurus receive fair and market competitive salaries, commissions, benefits, and perks along with competitive bonuses and 401k matching. We want to make sure every Guru feels valued and compensated fairly, so I encourage you to reach out to your manager and HR Business Partner so our team can further address this issue. - Andrea Eldridge, Chief People Officer

Pros

Nice office environment with free food and drinks available. The gym and company perks are a nice bonus. There are also some genuinely good people on the team who make the workplace more enjoyable.

Cons

Management can feel overly political, and some managers appear to give more attention and opportunities to favorites rather than treating employees consistently. While the company talks about supporting mental health, the day-to-day culture does not always reflect that message. There is also growing uncertainty about long-term job stability as AI becomes more integrated into the work.
