Pros

The opportunity to make a lot of money is there. If you are passionate about fitness, technology, and leading a healthy lifestyle you will be surrounded by likeminded people. You are well taken care of on work trips. Healthy snacks are always available.

Cons

Peloton started out as my dream company to work for. That passion for the brand and my job quickly diminished with a change in management. I can't speak for all staff, but certainly my department didn't run by the same company culture that made us fall in love with our jobs in the first place. Management can talk the talk, but in no way can they walk the walk. Part of the core values are to challenge the status quo, think critically, and have the autonomy to make our own decisions. If we failed, we were to fail fast and learn from the mistakes. This was supposed to help us grow and break barriers. Management would remind us of these values, but if you place them into practice and they aren't inline with their thoughts, ideas, and beliefs, you were seen as not adapting to the changes or not seeing the vision. They have a top-down management style, although they would say it is bottom-up. There is an absence of transparency as to the changes going on and the proper support to be successful at your job. Everything is political. If you state your concerns or opinion, or do not share the same ideas, eventually you will be fired. They want a team of people who agree with them on everything. Management has lack of confidence with their ability to drive the business unless they surround themselves with a team of followers. I was lied to about my benefits.

Pros

Free spin classes, if you're into that sort of thing.

Cons

"Management" has absolutely no idea what they're doing. They do not value employee ideas and feedback. It is a very young (over confident and under-experienced) company. The culture is catty, incestuous, and overall just uncomfortable. Do not be fooled by the ping-pong table, free snacks, and modern open floor plan. This company is a smoldering dumpster fire.

Cool company - bad internal structure

Pros

- Exciting company to work for - lots of cool things rolling out all the time! - Great benefits - free classes, 401k + matching, cool office, "unlimited PTO" - Inspiring CEO with a strong vision

Cons

- Generally a toxic work environment - Worked like a dog with little to no recognition - Terrible work-life balance. They say there is unlimited PTO, but that really only applies if your manager allows you to take time off. If you get lucky and get a day approved you'll likely need to be answering emails and/or be on slack. This goes for regular after hours and on the weekends too. - HR team is a joke. They have the tendency to overlook employee complaints/issues that will make more work for them. If you're unhappy they will just tell you to find a new job instead of being a confidential sounding board, offering conflict resolution meetings, or generally being helpful at all.
