Pros

I almost didn't interview with Headspace because of some of the Glassdoor reviews. If I had followed through, I would have missed out on working for an amazing company. Headspace is known globally...but it's a start up. Remember that. It has gone from 50 to 200 employees rather quickly, so there have been & will continue to be growing pains. All I can say is that from what I've experienced, it's a company that is true to its mission: Improve the Health & Happiness of the World. If that sounds cheesy, this probably isn't the place for you because everyone is on board. This is a fantastic company with very talented people. If you're interested in an open position, don't let this site deter you from applying.

Cons

I don't necessarily think you need to have prior experience using Headspace to work here...but let's be real, this is a very purpose-driven company. You should probably download the app & try meditation before you apply.

Pros

-they offer great resources for members to utilize -continued education to sharpen your coaching skills

Cons

-there have been so many changes and expectations that are frustrating to navigate -they expect way too much for so little pay and no benefits -this role is so taxing on your own mental health... many of the members that you see aren't a good fit for coaching, so you're also filtering a lot of members for therapy and navigate really heavy mental health conversations that aren't within the scope of coaching -feedback isn't delivered live, it's all put in a spreadsheet that's clearly input by automation
