Betterment Reviews

Product: Seemed unfocused, and the service is morphing/resembling more of a robo-advisor with a human if/when you need it, so does this still make it a robo-advisor? Upward Mobility: Your success depends on your manager and area. Frankly, my dept. felt bloated with managers. As with any company that is growing, politics and egos are rampant, and you may even end up in a situation where you're asked to generate new ideas and be a leader, but only when it's convenient for an insecure/inexperienced manager, who gives mixed messages, does nothing with those ideas, but is happy to go around espousing self-labeled "high level feedback."

- There have been lots of firings in general, but particularly in the marketing department there is a lot of turnover (people choosing to leave). - Extreme lack of diversity despite efforts from the recruiting team - Lack of organization around changing products/marketing tactics. There are a lot of "top down" mandates that have to be prioritized without taking into account previous strategy or team goals. - Almost every team is severely understaffed. This makes our work as a marketing team difficult. - Don't interview for Betterment for Business. Just don't do it. That team is run to the ground with work and managers care more about keeping the department financially afloat than they do about their clients. - Getting ahead here is all about visibility. - Data driven organization with few data resources. The Analytics team is unhelpful. - Company culture has suffered over the past year. Rapid growth and moving to a new office has made this company feel less like a family than in previous years.
