Headspace reviews

Was once a great place to work when there was money in the bank and forecasted growth was being realized. Benefits that were once really good have been cut multiple times, Pay was once above average although gaps between certain teams and individuals were questionable. Pay for open roles a lot less than before. Several rounds of layoffs to date with more to come? New CEO, came in and first acts were a layoff and getting rid of a significant benefit called Mind Days which was literally every other Friday off to rest and recharge. You can imagine how beloved that benefit was. This varied between teams but almost zero room for growth. Imagine it’s worse now unless you’re both incredible at your job and you are able to shove your nose very high up into the anuses of the right people across several teams and departments. Product and mission seem to have lost the plot, top heavy org, too many cooks in the kitchen. I will say it’s probably a great opportunity for someone to come in help drive growth. It’s much needed and I imagine you can reap rewards if you can do that.

I have to echo with what everyone is saying - Since the new CEO has joined, I feel a shift in the culture at Headspace is very unwelcoming and very opposite of what they pose to be. Of course they are corporate, but it is apparent they do not have the values that align with looking out for the wellbeing of their staff and users.
