Pros

Working with people of similar demographic and interests, so making friends with coworkers is easy. There are a few different schedules offered (weekday business hours are 9a-11:30p) so you might find something that works for you. Office environment is laid back, perfect for fresh out of college. Can wear casual clothes, there are a lot of morale-boosting activities, usually on a monthly basis. The company will pay for (and give bonuses for) getting certified in various health fields like personal training, nutrition specialties, etc. It's a great stepping stone job and having WebMD on the resume is nice.

Cons

Depending on what schedule is available at time of hire and what you're put on, work-life balance can be terrible. Your entire day is micromanaged from start to finish, so keep that in mind when figuring out if this is a good job for you. Things are constantly changing and supervisors/management positions have a hard time with keeping things consistent and streamlining information for the health coaches.

Pros

The pros have been well summed up by the other reviews on this site, including (especially) the observations of culture and management.

Cons

I agree with the well reasoned critique that Glassdoor reviewers have offered to explain their frustrations with working here over the years. Things could indeed improve.
