Pros

1. Entrepreneurial. Despite growth and success, Lose It! has maintained internally an entrepreneurial feel in terms how it makes decisions, moves quickly, and addresses market challenges. 2. Benefits. Lose It!'s employee benefits package is legit off-the-charts amazing, I've never experienced anything like it at any other company. Top of the line health and medical, flexible vacation policy, and a yearly retreat to an international city are among the many benefits I appreciate most. 3. Empowerment. Employees are regularly included in the company planning process, the CEO and President give weekly updates on the company, and I truly feel I have a voice and input on the work that is to be done and how to go about doing it. 4. Caring "Family" atmosphere. Hard to maintain when a company keeps growing, but there remains still a general feeling of being part of a "Lose It!" family. A feeling that folks care about you, and that the company takes care of you in ways large and small. This has been part of the culture from the original founders and is carried through today with the current CEO and President. 5. Smart, Talented Employees. Hiring good talent can be difficult, and not everyone winds up being a good fit, but by and large Lose It!'s team is composed of very smart and talented people, who I am proud to work with.

Cons

Really one of the few downsides I can think of at Lose It! is in the area of engineering capacity. We have so many great opportunities and great ideas, it becomes a challenge to find the engineering capacity to work on them (which is why we are aggressively hiring!).

Lots of independence and control over work that makes a difference in the lives of millions of people

Cons

A little under resourced for how much we try to do. Could use a few more hires to do more

Pros

The biggest pro at this company is its transparency. From my experience, unless a question would violates someone's privacy, there is no question that will not receive a direct answer. It helps give me insight into what's going on in with the company big picture and gives me a sense of trust that the exec team is looking out for me. The company has amazing benefits. Since there are no investors to satisfy, Lose It! can focus on the two things that are most important: its users and its employees. And it shows with the amazing health care plan and the summer retreats to other countries (seriously... no other company does that) and too many other benefits to list here. The company is growing unlike other startups. With a focused, purpose-driven growth model, we have a controlled growth that allows for new hires to come in and have a more direct impact on the millions of users we are trying to help.

Cons

We did have some growing pains in the company culture as we grew from a small team into the company we have today. We're still working through those issues but I think the exec team has taken major efforts over the past year to eliminate those issues. Some of these issues have been noted in other reviews and I think they are being addressed. As I mentioned in the pros section, one of my favorite things about the company is its transparency. So if you are considering joining Lose It! and any reviews here are giving you pause, please don't dismiss us immediately. I encourage you to speak to us and ask the hard questions because we want to answer them.
