Innovative org; make a difference and maintain your life balance.
Pros
Authentic, smart leaders looking to solve mental heath challenges / the crisis not only in the short term, but long-term. The most sincere, mission driven CEO - Russ is incredible. He listens. He has a clear vision, and he genuinely cares about making a positive impact. The people - from clinical to marketing and client success, we have a team of smart, driven people who do the right thing, and are committed to continuous improvement. Not afraid to take risks or make mistakes as an org, and employees feel that too - there is permission to fail with ideas. Work life balance is real here - when I returned to work after both my first and second baby, I was given total flexibility and had my children on zoom. There was no judgement and no pressure, only support (top down).
Cons
Org was slow to streamline workflows and teams post merger (including doing the tough thing with layoffs), and we are feeling some of the effects of that. Fast growing company and fast growing/innovative solution - this means the strategy, the solution, the comms, etc. are all evolving quickly and there is not as much "getting comfortable". We also need support with prioritization - the org is tackling so much at once. Since Covid it's a mostly remote workplace - we have offices in SF and Santa Monica, but the majority of the org works remotely. While the total flexibility is nice, miss seeing teams in person and the camaraderie.
