Pros

There are lots of pros to working at PURE. PURE has an aggressive benefits plan that affords flexibility and work/life balance as well as encouragement to pursue wellness that's not just talk. Workplace culture is very friendly, and supportive of people and their lives. Colleagues are helpful, kind and collaborate very well. Management does try to do right by employees.

Cons

It's a new company with a new concept, so it comes with growing pains with regard to infrastructure, systems, etc., but the company is working on it. Because of the company's focus on hiring the "right" person for the job, sometimes, they can be very slow to hire additional help. Also, sometimes there can be a feeling of disconnection / disadvantage if you don't work out of the White Plains office. Bonus structure can be weak.

Pros

Best company I’ve worked for. The culture is genuinely people-first and you feel valued, not just like a number. Leadership is transparent and accessible, compensation is competitive, and the work is meaningful. You’re set up to succeed and given real autonomy to do your job.

Cons

Like any growing company there is always room to refine processes but PURE is constantly improving and receptive to feedback. Nothing that outweighs the positives.

Pros

Coworkers, solid 401k matching, health benefits

Cons

One of the hardest lessons I learned early in my career was that not every workplace is healthy, and that toxicity can become normalized when leadership and HR reinforce it. Employees were routinely gaslit into working long hours for minimal pay, taking on excessive workloads due to chronic understaffing, and overcompensating simply to stay afloat. Any attempt to set reasonable boundaries was met with reprimand, pressure, bullying, or eventual push-out (which appears to be the default approach). With the current leadership, this culture is unlikely to change, and it’s unclear whether that is a concern at all. PURE’s culture offers only two paths: full, unquestioning compliance (regardless of personal cost) or being quietly pushed out. I chose self-respect over compliance, rebuilt my confidence in the workplace, and found a company whose leadership genuinely recognizes, appreciates, and celebrates my success. I promise, you can too!!!
