Pros

- Like many others have said, some people at Sonder are great and are a pleasure to work with. Mostly low-middle staff.

Cons

- Higher staff who are either rude, racist, incompetent or all of above. Most managers are hired outside of company and without HR or proper training programs, they are completely clueless. - Some GMs are extremely rude and even make public inappropriate comments on internal platforms, and when brought up to management, no one cares. You get shut down because you're not important enough. - Bro culture is real. Favouritism. Personalistic hierachy. Honestly, go find the first 30 employees of Sonder and ask them why they left. The ones that stayed stay because they're BFFs of the CEOs hence royal treatment. The ones who like the company are most definitely within this bro culture

Hi. As a member of Sonder’s people department, I’m reaching out to ask if you’d be willing to talk. It is not and will never be our intention to make our people - without whom we would not be successful - feel discriminated against, shut down, disrespected, or unheard. We would welcome and appreciate the opportunity to dive deeper into your experience with us. Despite Glassdoor telling us your an ex-employee, would you be willing to reach out to your manager, your HOD, the exec team, our VP of People (Melissa), or myself (Ella) directly via phone or email? Thank you.

Cons

It's closed now. Unfortunately had to happen very abruptly,
