Pros

Recruiting process was solid, first call to offer letter was less than a month and on my first day my lap top was ready. Employees are great, very collaborative.. Location is good and close to gym, easy to get a workout in before or after work.

Cons

Very political organization. If you get off to a bad start with one of the VP's you're in trouble, esp the very top. You can’t tell the truth about status of project timelines, machine performance, etc. doing so will result in being bucketed a troublemaker. Once branded this you have little chance of recovery-- you will get no help completing assignments, given the lowest of the low projects and cut out of communication chain that's needed to be effective.

Pros

product will eventually be good one day

Cons

Everything. Worst management I have ever seen. They will never go public under current management. VP and Directors manager by degrading and bashing your every move. Worst employment decision I had ever made. They lie about comp, won't put it in writing, change it when it suits them. Run away and don't return recruiter calls....they talk a good game, don't get roped in like I did.

Our culture is not just in the hands of a few, but is driven by all of us. We are dreamers, thinkers, builders, and doers. Outset is a special place where jobs are challenging, you work alongside deeply caring people, all to advance a noble mission. It is not for everyone, and I applaud you for making a decision that was better for you. There is not growth in the comfort zone, and not comfort in the growth zone – and at Outset we live in the growth zone. While your experience doesn’t mirror the experiences of Outsetters who take such deep pride in their contributions, it gives us pause to reflect on where our growth may be causing strain. Thank you for the input.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us. We have never been prouder of our team members and what they have achieved, individually and collectively. Our culture is intentional and attracts the bold, the curious and those activated to make a difference. Our employees work for our patients who want to feel and be well and for the clinicians who want a reliable solution that offers an uncomplicated care experience. Our culture gives each employee a stimulating, challenging growth opportunity, and the chance to work with like-minded, vibrant believers in a fast-paced environment – and yet it is not for everybody. If you have specific feedback that you’re willing to share, we want to hear it, especially if it gives us insight on how to grow and scale effectively.
