      Pros

      There honestly aren’t many. The only redeeming factor is equity. But even then with how leadership is running folks into the ground, I’m not even sure it’s a pro.

      Cons

      No one knows how to lead here. It starts at the very top. So many decisions are made in a vacuum then announced out to folks in a meeting that is scheduled last minute. To make things worse leadership never leaves any opportunity for feedback or Q&A. Sr leadership has serious trust issues. They want their hands involved in every single thing that happens. Some of the worst micromanaging I’ve ever experienced. They act like WHOOP is invincible, no decisions from sr leadership ever come back to them. It’s always the IC or middle management that is blamed. On top of all of that (& much more), HR is incompetent and will ignore or gaslight you if you go to them with any concerns.

      Thank you for your feedback, although it is disappointing to hear that your experience at WHOOP was not a positive one. It’s especially discouraging to hear you felt micromanaged, ignored, and gaslighted, as we always want employees to feel empowered their opinions matter, and they are contributing toward our goals and mission. We genuinely appreciate your feedback and will utilize it as we continue to grow and improve as an organization

      Pros

      The CEO appears to have a clear and compelling long term vision. The product has strong brand loyalty and a passionate user base.

      Cons

      Internal politics and misaligned priorities can slow progress and decision making. Some decisions do not appear to be grounded purely in what is best for the user or product. Development cycles can feel long, sometimes taking 2 to 3 years for meaningful product evolution. Several larger departments appear to lack a well balanced mix of experienced, merit driven, and deeply knowledgeable contributors, which can lead to disconnects between teams and ultimately show up in the product. Egos and internal agendas at times overshadow collaboration and product focused thinking.
