Pros

Nothing any more. Everything previously listed here as positive has gone down hill. Owners sold majority to investors and no longer have a say. The original "culture" that existed is almost gone.

Cons

Pay across the board, raises recently capped at 3%, benefits are no longer competitive, inexperienced mid-level and high level managers, want a promotion? You have to be popular and in the "in-crowd", horrible building that is dirty, lack of bathrooms and lack of parking. WebPT is having an identity crises. Used to be a fun, laid back start up. Since the owners sold majority to investor, the company has slowly been losing what made it great. With every new incoming manager that has been picked by now majority investors, the new corporate feel grows. Monthly company stand ups are embarrassing and uncomfortable which usually involve previous majority owner/ founder crying, probably cause she can see her company crumbling. Almost all original employees have left or been let go cause the growing disorganization and horrible growing negative atmosphere.

WebPT Response

Thank you for your review of WebPT. We believe strongly that we offer a positive and rewarding work environment, as evidenced by our multiple Best Places to Work honors (many of which are based on anonymous employee surveys) and our employee loyalty (more than 100 of WebPTers have been with the company for more than three years, which is pretty impressive considering that the whole company only had 100 employees a few years ago). Furthermore, 38 employees have received promotions over the last year. These promotions have been based on open posting and interviewing processes. Over the past two years, we’ve added numerous benefits, like 401(k) matching, paid parental leave, the ability to bring your dog to work, gym discounts, company-contributed HSA plans, and extensive leadership training. Our efforts are far from over, though. We know we still have improvements to make—one of which is our building. Over the next year, we’ll be completing a top-to-bottom renovation and expansion. Regarding our fast growth, you’re correct: we’re growing very fast. We now have more than 10,000 customers and 65,000 users. That’s a lot of customers, and that’s why we’re investing in better tools, processes, training, and resources. But, all of those things take time and require processes. WebPT has always been an evolving company. And to ensure we provide the absolute best service to our growing number of customers, we’ve had to grow up a bit. But, we know our customers appreciate the changes we’ve made, as evidenced by our 99.3% Member retention rate. And we’re certain that most of employees appreciate the changes, too. We conducted an anonymous employee survey in March, and we’re proud to say that the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. In fact, our overall employee net promoter score is 51.8 (which is above average for a B2B software company), and some departments had perfect scores. We really appreciate your feedback, and we hope this response provides clarity on your concerns.

Pros

Amazing team and culture who want you to succeed in your position. I have received ample training and have strong support each day in my role. Being a remote role is important to me; however, you need a strong and cohesive team for it to work. WebPT is all of that!

Cons

Being a fully remote role, this requires more time when learning/training as you are not sitting in the same office as co-workers. This affected me as I was changing careers. If you are not changing careers, this would not be an issue.

Pros

Some good people on the ground level and coworkers who genuinely try to help each other survive the environment. Decent experience if you’re brand new to SaaS sales and need resume experience.

Cons

Leadership consistently ignores employee feedback across both Account Management and Sales. Decisions are often justified using flawed or selectively presented data while unrealistic expectations continue to rise quarter after quarter. The company culture pushes the phrase “F up and own up,” yet leadership rarely takes accountability for internal operational failures, poor strategic decisions, unrealistic quotas, or the damage caused to teams through constant pressure and shifting expectations. PIPs feel inevitable rather than performance-based. Targets continue increasing even while larger market conditions and internal churn clearly show deeper problems. Management communication often feels passive aggressive, and trust between leadership and employees is extremely low. Compensation is below market value for the workload and expectations. The earning potential presented during hiring does not reflect reality for most reps. High turnover in sales is constant, and if layoffs are not happening, people are still leaving regularly. Until leadership changes course, the churn will likely continue.
