Extremely turbulent

Pros

Headspace is a wonderful team of hard-working, passionate people. They love what they do, and are super-passionate about helping the world.

Cons

With the speed of technology companies these days, the turnover has been extreme. Many people have left for their own mental health, which is odd because the nature of the business is to better the happiness and health of the world. Be prepared for very little training, little to no on-ramp, and a breakneck speed.

Pros

Some very passionate, smart people in many departments throughout the company Competitive salaries Very generous benefits (amazing healthcare plan, 401k match, and mental health days) Company’s culture is to try to help employees Mission driven, lofty goals

Cons

Changes in executive leadership, with at least three CEOs, four heads of HR/People, four heads of Engineering, and three heads of Sales during as many years Former CEO hired continuous waves of friends and family regardless of optics or whether they were an appropriate fit to lead in a growing wellness startup Lack of transparency in addressing employee concerns and questions about strategy, spending, career pathing for employees, or company equity Employees need a break, mental health days aren’t effective if the same amount of work just needs to be completed in fewer days
