      Hi 👋 - I know this is a real review because we're the only ones to call Support team members "Drivers". Thanks for the work you do to move Jane forward and how you take care of the Customers every day! 👏 Short and sweet review today. I always assume these ones are because of that "Glassdoor is forcing me to leave a review if I want to use their platform" ha. But I'm glad you find Jane to be a Wonderful Work Environment! Glad that you're feeling positive about the team you work with and the way you're compensated. Definitely true that the pace can be intense - and we're always looking to find ways to make that a little easier.... It's pretty incredible how much our Customer Community wants to connect. Did you know that in the last 7 days we've had conversations with over 10,000 unique customers! I love that we're here to support and champion their practices as they work with Jane, but definitely appreciate that this means that our Customer Team has a lot on their plate. It's nice that our Customers are pretty delightful to work with themselves. I pulled up the "Happiness" report from the last 7 days and this is the first comment from one of the customers we helped: "I just love chatting with Jane people. I might start coming on just for the friendly conversation! And I got my questions answered easily. Thank you!!" So that's probably our fault. ha. They just like talking to us. 💕 Hope that time helps with finding some calm in the role and looking forward to working together moving forward! Ali Co-Founder/Co-CEO On Behalf of Jane

      Pros

      - Great pay and benefits - annual raises - fun events - equity - company growth - customers are awesome

      Cons

      - Working in support is very toxic (I hear the product side is much better) - If you do anything remotely wrong or lacking, you get into a disciplinary conversation - which you never get out of (even though they say you do.... You don't.) - No room for mistakes - Heavy burnout doing ALL of the things (sales, onboarding, all aspects of support) - No accommodations or leeway for parents - "Flexible" sick policy is not flexible at all. - No real accommodations or leeway for disabilities - Difficult to schedule appointments and regular life things - Seniority doesn't matter re: hiring within - Major favoritism

      I always wish I had a more personal way to respond to tough review then "Hey there"... But such is the way with anonymous posts. So... Hey there. Goodness, this is the 3rd "former employee" review here in a row, and I see that you had been with Jane for a couple of years before posting the review - Over your tenure at Jane we would have doubled twice! That's a lot of change. So first of all, thank you for being a part of the last few years of Jane's story. For me, they've been years filled with learning and growth, and I know everyone who has been scaling with Jane has had to commit to a lot of evolution over that time. I want to say thank you for a few other things too. Thanks for specifically articulating that there's a real intentional vision of what Support at Jane should look like. And for offering me direct feedback that the vision I've set (Growth, but not at the expense of our Team or our Customers) might not have been lived out during the end of your time at Jane. And thanks for being positive both about Trevor and I as CEOs and on the outlook of Jane as a Business that is likely to continue to succeed. I really value that input. As you know, I sat in the Support seat myself for many years, and I feel passionately about the value of the role, including how undervalued Support is both in Market Compensation. I also feel passionately about the possibility of Support being a Career of which we can be proud. And as a a parent, I also take to heart the feedback that you might not have felt like you were given the flexibility you needed to support your family - I'm going to look further into that. As I parent my own three kids, I'm really aware of the challenges that come with work and family. "Support as a Career" is an ongoing conversation I'm always engaging in with Marc and our Support Leadership. It's important to me that financially and professionally, our Support team have a clear view of a successful Career Path. You'll already know of our regular salary increases over time (which you mentioned in your "pros") - interestingly, while we target 50 - 75% of market comp for most of our roles at Jane, we target 125% for our Support roles. I don't agree with the way the Market values Support. It is SO undervalued - and as a "helper" role that is predominately female dominant I feel strongly that we should be advocating for Market wage increases. I am hopeful that Jane is a part of upping the Support wage out there for everyone in this important role. I just looked at your star rating, and actually see that comp and benefits was a place that you gave Jane ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - so it's actually not an area that you struggled with. Beyond comp, I also believe in a Career path that offers role development as well. This might be more relevant to the idea of burnout. We've recently launched an "L3" Support role. Those in support are so well versed in the Customer Voice. I love it when we can take those on our team who have marinated there and spread their wisdom throughout the company. We've done that through internal movement between teams (90% of our Product Managers were once in Support), but I'm also working on how to allow this voice to be turned up while still remaining in a Support seat. Lots of new things to come here as we keep growing. I am curious, given your tenure, whether this negative sentiment you've shared is something that changed recently for you. Did you experience a year and a half of things going well before this review? Sigh. I wish I could have back and forth conversations on Glassdoor...... There's always so many questions I have that are left unanswered. Often these reviews are a real moment in time, which is why people only ever read the newest ones.... If you aren not currently at Jane, you wouldn't have been a part of the recent conversations that have bubbled up in our anonymous slack channel (Ask_Jane_Leadership_Anything). I can see that sick time in particular has become a really hot topic. As per your suggestion, I'm digging deeply in there to see what's changed. Since it's come up in these last 3 reviews, it could definitely have been a recent focus of the team. As always, as things crack over time, we are committed to the conversations and work needed to fix them. As I mentioned in the thread: "[Hopefully!] Jane is not defined by whether or not things will break; we know they will. I hope that Jane is instead defined by how we discover where things are breaking and how we work on fixing them, over and over and over again. " Again, as per your advice, I'll keep digging in to see whether this experience you've had is something that is widely shared and we'll keep working on how to grow Jane the Company in a way that is respectful of our team. Since you spent a few years with Jane, you would have greatly contributed to our success to date. But your story with Jane doesn't end here: You have gained ownership throught the ESOP, and (I hope) have exercised your options to remain an owner, even if you are not continuing on in your role at Jane. Even though your time at Jane didn't have a final chapter that felt delightful to you, your feedback here and your contributions will always have an impact on our story. So thanks for the ongoing passion for Jane. I will definitely take your advice and continue to work hard on scaling Jane in a way that aligns with our Values, and my Vision for a well-compensated, respected, Support Team. 💕 Ali Co-Founder/Co-CEO On Behalf of Jane

      Pros

      Jane is a wonderful company to work for! I've worked here for almost 4 years and have seen tons of growth happen. I was hired in 2020 when Jane was really starting to get busy and there were a lot of moving parts but Jane has done a wonderful job of growing while still feeling like a small(er) company. A few things that I love about working for Jane are: - Transparency: They always tell us what's happening and share the business side of things, which is super important in the tech sector. Jane is different with how they run their business and I feel really grateful that they share it with their employees. - Leadership: I've been in a leadership role for over 2 years now and really love how we lead folks at Jane. It's a very human-first approach. - Career Development: There are so many opportunities to develop your career at Jane. It doesn't have to be by moving into a new position, it can be within your current role where we can work on certain skills and thrive where we currently are. Benefits: I've never had as good of a benefit and compensation package working at other companies. Fair and competitive salaries as well as a comprehensive benefits and mental health packages are always important. Thank you Jane for being so awesome to work at!

      Cons

      There aren't many cons to working at Jane. It's a wonderful company and I can't think of things I'd like to see change. Just like any rapidly growing company, there are growing pains with implementing new systems and processes but with an open mind and realistic expectations, it can work out fine! It's all about trial and error - sometimes you fail and sometimes you win.

      Pros

      -Pay is above market average and great benefits from day 1 -Some great team members who genuinely care -Customers are at the heart of the work, even if leadership doesn’t always show it

      Cons

      -Leadership asks for feedback but doesn’t actually want to hear it -Communication is unclear and inconsistent -The “C conversation” structure is often used as a punitive tool rather than true coaching. If you question anything from leadership, go to your direct manager for support or if someone misunderstands you, this is used as a negative for you. -Workload expectations are unrealistic for the role and daily hours available -Drivers are overworked, and feedback about this is dismissed rather than addressed -Senior leadership feels disconnected from frontline employees—support is said to be a priority, but actions don’t reflect that -Diversity is undervalued. There is no proper training for leadership and while there is a lovely group of Team Captains that are spearheading this, it seems to stall out at senior leadership levels.

      A Bait-and-Switch Experience

      Customer service representative
      Former employee

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Onboarding week was warm, organized, and encouraging. Benefits are adequate, and retreats/department gatherings are covered. Coworkers were very supportive.

      Cons

      Communication during interviews was inconsistent, with delays, missed deadlines, and errors like duplicated template text or missing wording, making communication confusing and requiring constant clarification (I figured they were simply having a busy hiring burst and gave them the benefit of the doubt). While onboarding week was positive, it sharply contrasted with the training that followed. Training was described as “brisk,” but it was impossible to complete within working hours. Timing the courses and assignments against their own estimated timeframes, and conversations with peers, confirmed that modules, readings, meetings, and revisions could not realistically be completed anywhere near working hours. Many new hires, myself included, worked well into evenings and weekends to keep up. Team captains and management were aware yet offered no adjustments. When raised, their body language made it clear it wasn’t welcome to discuss in depth. They would say not to stay late, but the environment made that impossible and everyone was aware of it. Their support was the equivalent to basic platitudes and no action. More than one peer from different training cohorts privately expressed burnout, indicating this is systemic. Being told not to worry and “go at your own pace” while simultaneously being held to unrealistic benchmarks at the end of each week created clear contradiction, which felt manipulative and like mind games. The company claims to value work–life balance and its customer support department as its most important, yet the training and workload system demonstrates the opposite. Framing the pace as “brisk” and as “preparation” for when you’re fully on the floor, when it’s clearly a stress test and a way to fast-track new hires felt manipulative. The CEOs say new hires should escalate concerns directly to them, which removes responsibility from team captains or managers. Why should new employees vulnerable on probation bear this responsibility, given the obvious power imbalance? The company serves mental-health professionals and emphasizes empathy and wellbeing, yet the internal CS training environment is at odds with these principles creating unnecessary stress and unmanageable expectations, which is disheartening. Because the training pace prevents proper retention of material, there is heavy reliance on AI tools and copying and pasting replies which undermines the authenticity and human approach that’s promoted. The salary is attractive, but the role extends far beyond traditional customer support, including knowing Canadian and U.S. insurance systems. What really reinforced the bait and switch experience is leadership’s indifference on the training pace. Basically, don’t like it? Leave. As they offered no real support/adjustment yet you are evaluated and micromanaged constantly. This attitude also doesn’t respect that people have left stable careers based on the company ethos presented to them by Jane but weren’t ultimately given once employed. Most of us cannot simply “try on” a new career without major sacrifices. They say they’re transparent, helpful, empathetic, but once you’re there that’s not the experience.

      The larger they get, the more they lose what made them so unique from others. Lots of buzzwords used here - starting to feel like weaponized therapy speak. Intense micromanaging as of late. No reason to point out flaws or bring up genuine feedback because no one higher up does anything about it.

      Hey 👋 I'm phil, part of Jane's People team. I spend my days thinking about how people grow in their work and find their footing at Jane to do their best work. That makes this kind of review land personally for me, and I want to engage with it honestly. Three-plus years is real time here! That's not a cup of coffee at Jane, that's chapters, changes, probably a couple versions of what Jane's looked like. I genuinely hope this is one of those harder seasons rather than a settled place for you, because in my own experience, how we feel about work can shift a lot depending on what's happening around us and inside us at the same time. The fluctuation is real, and it doesn't always mean something is permanently broken. I hope there's a path through this with the right combination of support from your manager, honest conversations with peers, and your own growth that can altogether get you somewhere that feels better than this does right now. Since you've posted anonymously and haven't indicated which team you're on, it's genuinely hard for me to understand the full texture of your reality. I don't want to make assumptions about what's driving what you're describing, because the experience of someone in one part of Jane will look really different from someone in another, and I think it'd be doing you a disservice to respond as if I know. What I can engage with is the substance of what you've shared. On compensation and benefits, it's great to hear that landing well! People should feel recognized for the work they're bringing every day. The love for the customers, yep, that one hits me every time I hear it. That's our mission in action. "Weaponized therapy speak" is a phrase I've been thinking about since I read this. As someone who's trained as a therapist, that one got my attention in a specific way. Language that's meant to support people can absolutely be experienced as a tool of deflection or control, and if that's what's happening in your corner of Jane, I genuinely want to understand it. Same goes for the micromanaging you're naming, and the sense that feedback doesn't go anywhere. Our most recent health check data tells us that 74% of people feel heard when they advocate for improvements, so I'm personally sorry to hear that you're in the 1/4 of folks that don't feel this way. I personally really wanna see this score go up, and I hope it changes for you too. Everyone at Jane's constantly working through SO many improvements, it's a constant struggle of "choice" on how to prioritize which improvement and when. If you truly see opportunity for things to be better, I hope you can feel like you can continue to advocate for those changes in helpful ways. To hear that you and others are feeling burnt out also really stings... that's definitely not something that should be normalized. Yea Jane's intense, and yea it's demanding, but "burnt out" isn't where you should be sitting. I hope you can leverage resources around you to get to a healthier place. I'd love to chat with you directly. Not to convince you of anything, just to actually understand what you're experiencing, especially if you're feeling this sense of burn out. If you're open to it, shoot me a Slack DM, I'm always here for it. I hope only the best for you along your Jane journey my friend. - phil

      Pros

      Lots of amazing people at Jane, customers are generally really nice. Pay and benefits are great.

      Cons

      The company talks about how important customer support is, and how Jane wants to utilize the strengths you do have to work with you to improve in areas that might not be a strength, however that's all talk, as soon as the company finds one thing you need to improve in, you are on your way out the door and there is no support to help you improve. There is also no transparency on whether its just a regular weekly coaching or more of a improvement plan and no matter what you do, you get feed back such as , "not good enough", or "Still not good enough", which isnt valuable feedback or helpful for improving. Everything is amazing there, until one day its not and it feels like you have a target on your back and no matter what you do is never good enough. Ive honestly never felt so unsupported then i have at my time at Jane from direct leadership. A good leader can support and uplift an agent and help them get to where they need to be, but from my experience, its the exact opposite, when you have one thing to work on , the TC does not help you succeed, they bring you down and set you up for failure rather then success.

      Hi there - thanks for sharing some really detailed feedback. I’m genuinely sorry to hear that you felt unsupported during your time at Jane. I can understand how difficult it must have been to feel that your performance feedback wasn’t leading to the kind of support and improvement you expected. As per your suggestion, I have been doing a lot of thinking about what "ending well" looks like - especially in support. I've been thinking a lot about why this is so challenging.... While it's never what anyone hopes for, recognizing that not everyone will thrive in a particular role or in a particular company is unavoidable. On the Support side we're pairing that challenging conversation with new Managers on the Team Captain side. What’s interesting is the pattern you mentioned—where everything feels fine until it doesn’t. and then team members are spending a long time working with their manager on their performance before being let go. The flip side to this story is people coming here and saying "everything was fine and then suddenly one day I was just let go with no warning - I was blind sided." The 4C framework was designed to prevent that feeling of blind siding - and while it sounds like you did know that there were things that needed to be addressed, you didn't feel like the feedback around how to address them was clear enough. So we've solved one problem but need to keep iterating on the communication. I'm not sure if your TC used the new Thrive Framework to help communicate whatever area improvement was needed? I'm curious if it will be helpful for new managers and team members to really pin down where to focus? The Framework talks about: Attitude, Quality of Work, Quantity of Work, Improvement Impact and Communication. I'm also curious if you had an opportunity to reach out to your People Partner? I know that whenever anyone is working through Curiosity or Concern conversations they try to be available - as it can definitely create extra stress. As you know, through our Health Check (and we're actually just about to trial moving Manager questions to a more comprehensive stand alone survey) - we get some insights into how each team across Jane is faring under each manager. For TCs, we definitely see some thriving and others struggling - which is to be expected when someone is new to a role. Just as you had some intentional conversations around performance, we have those same types of conversations with TCs who are might not be thriving in certain aspects of the management role. Compounding onto this, I think that the absolute hardest thing any manager has to do is let someone know that they likely won't find success in their role and should consider a different path. While it's always our goal to make those conversations as respectful and supportive as possible - that is never a good day. Since it's not something that happens often, our TCs in particular are likely doing that whole process for the first time. I was just thinking about TCs as brand new managers and wondering if we could consider some form of co-piloting with a Strong TC for a period of time before taking over a team. Overlapping the transition time with a Transition Specialist? We'll keep working on building up the strength of the TC layer. We strongly value internal promotion with our Team Captains and have never hired externally for these positions. It's important to me that we're offering our team career advancing opportunities and this sometimes comes with hiccups. As always, I'm glad to hear that you loved working with our Customers, and felt like the pay was generous for the role. I'm hearing we didn't have clear coaching communication, and we also didn't "end well" here, and I do know that with clear and kind communication, that is a possible outcome. It's something we'll keep working on with our TCs. Thanks for sharing your story. Ali Co-Founder/Co-CEO On behalf of Jane

      Pros

      Opportunity and career growth are real if you go for them. My career at Jane has been incredibly rich. I've been pulled into projects, given a voice in new initiatives, and invited to test new things and grow. If you're someone who takes initiative and grabs opportunities, they're there for you. The workload is fast-paced, enriching, and impactful. I thrive in the type of environment where you're constantly engaging with customers, solving problems, and making a real difference. It does require grit, the ability to handle ambiguity, and quick adaptation - the goalposts do move, and the work isn't easy. But if you love that kind of challenge and energy, it's incredibly rewarding. Compensation and culture: Pay is fair and transparent for our industry, with great perks like annual retreats, gifts, travel, and shares. The company has a human focus behind decision making. I feel seen and cared about by all levels of management. Yes, there can be growing pains as we scale and evolve - some of that care can get lost in translation - but at its core, it's there.

      Cons

      Benefits are decent to start, but don't advance a whole lot as you gain tenure. Working in a high-growth company isn't for everyone... gotta stay quick on your toes
