Pros

Have been with HelloBody for two years and was able to professionally develop and immensely increase my soft- and hard skills here. I'm leaving the reference because I can see the negative references and knowing whom they are coming from (colleagues recognise each other) I can say that I am in full support of a work environment which supports and nurtures high performers and does not accept low performance and negativity. Low performing and negative colleagues might look at this differently though and thus the references here are negative. Having worked in other places before I know how frustrating it is to have colleagues that hold back each other. On a different note: HelloBody does hardly have any churn of employees. All employees who have started with HelloBody still work with HelloBody - the only ones who have left the company have had their contracts terminated. During my years in HelloBody there was hardly any colleague who has left because he or she felt there is no room for development. I have worked in a handful other companies and have work experience of a bit over ten years in different roles. HelloBody is the most professional, most successful and still most human company I have worked with in my career. I love my job.

Cons

In the US they are very young and are still generating learnings.

Pros

A startup that has the benefits of an established company. The people are amazing to work with; very collaborative environment!

Cons

Working in the smaller office, the communication with the headquarters is really hard. The company needs to do a better job at bridging the communication gap and also making it better for work/life balance.

Pros

The female employees were very sweet and helpful. TBH, I was interviewed by 4 different employees at HelloBody multiple times, and I was excited to work for this company until I met the CEO.

Cons

The CEO was rude and on his phone the entire time during my interview. I asked questions about the job role to get a further understanding of the responsibilities and he laughed at me as if I were asking ridiculous questions. It made me so incredibly uncomfortable. They think they know everything about the US market and don't want to hire anyone with any real knowledge or input. If you want a robot job, go for it, but I wouldn't want to work in that toxic environment where I was not valued. The CEO is offended by any sort of constructive criticism or input. They want people to take orders and do tasks. If you're looking for a leadership role, look elsewhere. They have a rigorous interview process. They work from a community WeWork office space in Hollywood with no parking. They expect you to be on call at all hours for the European teams. They require you to complete lengthy assignments to demonstrate your knowledge of marketing campaigns (possibly to gather free ideas). If you want to thrive in a role where your creative abilities are acknowledged and appreciated, don't work here.
