Pros

- super smart people, all chose to be here when they could be working in higher-paid and more "prestigious" roles - always changing direction - never boring - you can work in the food industry which is quite interesting

Cons

- politics EVERYWHERE - don't promote hard-working people, unless they kiss up to upper management - took away 401k matching for all employees because we "didn't have the money" yet make poor financial decisions like buying siggi yogurt to stock the fridge, throwing employee parties, and paying for everyone's private ubers to new jersey office - basically one rich guy's pet project - not a real business - no diversity in corporate. can count number of non-white corporate employees on two hands. most of them leave or are fired/laid off - ceo makes horrible business decisions and everyone has to deal with the consequences - in many cases, one person is working 2-3 people's jobs and has to work from 9am-11pm consistently + be online on weekends answering urgent requests or at least working on monday deadlines - managers have no time to mange, or training on how to manage because they are constantly overworked and stressed - fake values upheld by hr, no one actually follows them (including upper management themselves) - hr does not do anything to help the situation. just wants to make itself look good

Pros

- Very well thought-out performance and promotion cycle: Wonder may be a start-up, but they clearly invest a lot of time and effort into growing their employees, ensuring adequate actionable feedback, and allowing for growth during your time with the company. - Transparency: During my time at Wonder, I did not think much about this, but having moved on to a new company, I start to appreciate the level of transparency Wonder had. Despite its size and volume, the company made it an effort to keep employees updated every other week on key business updates across various verticals. - Flexibility: Hybrid in-office model at the time when I left earlier in 2026, they allowed 2 days wfh and 3 in-person days on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. - Employee benefits: The company had a strong employee relations team and culture that's constantly bringing fun and exciting events to work.

Cons

- Core of the company's leadership came from the same ex-company, which inevitably brings over legacy culture, and this can somewhat make employees from those companies feel somewhat left out.
