Pros: Was a special place years ago The product helps a lot of people in pain

Cons: The founders made a series of conflicting and confusing decisions in the last year that vaporized any goodwill they had built up w employees. There is zero confidence in the company's vision or leadership which is now a revolving door, at least with the people I worked and spoke with. Everyone I know in rnd is quiet-quitting while looking elsewhere or hoping for severance. A real shame.

Pros: Good work life balance. Incredible product that really helps people. Amazing coworkers, smart and driven engineers.

Cons: Leadership is not making decisions based on data or consensus, but seemingly on the whim of a few at the top. They do not ask for feedback, nor do they care when it's given. Decisions change frequently, and rarely have planning or guidance behind them. Employees are left floundering and expected to hold the weight of the lack of management/leadership/planning. It feels like we're trying to grow from a start up to a mature company overnight, and making risky and possibly destructive decisions to get there. Forced return to office and relocating employees (despite high productivity and growth from being remote for years) is the latest in the string of disappointing decisions, and I'm extremely concerned for the direction we're headed. There is now a hard career ceiling unless you live in San Francisco.

Pros: There's a strong culture of open communication and collaboration in order to get work done here at Hinge Health. So far almost everyone that I've worked with has been open minded and accepting in their approach regardless of what their titles or knowledge levels are.

Cons: Having a startup oriented culture it sometimes lacks process and standardization.
