Pros

Really nice offices and perks. Salary and benefits are above average. Really smart individuals.

Cons

Wodify acknowledged that they had a culture problem and a new culture was defined. Guess what, nothing changed. The culture was and will always be a culture of doing what management wants, don't question and point fingers if you fail. They truly believe in fear based leadership. The only reason people stay is due to the salary. No one is (or was) doing new interesting and challenging things. If you want a nice job just to earn some money, go for it. If you want to keep always learning by doing new things, don't even consider the chance.

Thank you for your feedback. We really do strive to create an awesome environment for our employees and thank you for acknowledging our benefits package and our talented team. Because we do take employee feedback seriously, our company culture is an evolving work in progress. Internally, we have improved by executing regular culture activities (8 so far this year), we added monthly all-hands meetings, we created an intranet page to increase company-wide communication, and we’re hiring candidates based on our core values. While we still have a long way to go, we hope these changes are not going unnoticed. We’ve also made a ton of strides towards more autonomous work, although it isn’t perfect, it does take some time to get there (Zappos has been working on holacracy for over 5 years). We value and respect every single employee at Wodify and we are sorry to hear you didn’t feel challenged in your role during the time you were with here. We wish you all the best.

Pros

- The pay is not great, but almost industry standard.

Cons

- As mentioned by plenty of others here, the fundamental problem is severe mismanagement by leadership. Those that work close with the c-suite know that they are at the mercy of the founder who often personally attacks employees and insults customers. From talking to everyone who has worked with him, he is known to be an abusive character who will fire anyone on a whim. While it is a known problem in the company, nobody will step up to change it for fear of being fired. - The company has been around for over a decade and their software still looks like it is from the early 2010s. If you join Wodify with the hopes of building innovative and well-designed software, you will be severely disappointed. Tech stack uses an outdated no-code software that creates generic looking Android-style apps that users are just barely okay with. The only value they have is in existing customers who don't want to go through the hassle of switching. New companies are popping up that do everything Wodify does, look much better, and cost a fraction of a price. The company is going nowhere and their hopes of selling are frankly delusional. - The company culture is non-existent. They have a small Wework office in Philadelphia that usually has 1 or 2 people and the office in Denver is just a few desks. On the inside, people talk about how they can just coast by and are waiting until a better option comes along.
