      Pros

      Some of the kindest and most thoughtful people I've ever worked with. Beloved brand, incredible mission. Had a rough couple of years but the outlook is bright. New CEO focused on building a stable foundation for the business so that we can truly start to innovate again in the months/years to come.

      Cons

      Still very much in messy start-up mode even though it's a long established company. Loads of processes that need cleaning up. Personally I like the building phase and being able to make constant improvements, but some find that frustrating.

      Great mission, and great people

      Cons

      Company is in flux, restructuring, redirecting, and it can feel chaotic.

      No opportunity or respect for people

      Pros

      You work with some great coworkers who honestly care about you and the people they work with.

      Cons

      The emphasis at Headspace has become money. There are few if any room for advancement unless you're in the upper echelons of management, and they have been doing rounds of lay offs regularly. They are also now forcing all therapists to go part time now as well. This is the future of the company as envisioned by a CEO who has nothing to do with mental health. If you do anything but agree excitedly with management, you will lose opportunities and raises. They will invite opinions, but they don't honestly want them. People are afraid to say what they actually think or need. It's a hostile environment in that way. They will have no problem lying to your face either. Toxic positivity and gaslighting run absolutely rampant here.
