Pros

Health Insurance and Parental Leave Benefits Seemingly infinite travel budget for sales teams

Cons

Brazilian Boys Club calls all the shots and gets all the leadership opportunities whether or not they are qualified, nepotism at its finest. Mediocre consultants who didn't make it at big firms are hired in many mid-level leadership roles and do very poor jobs. They intentionally hold back info from going up the chain for their own self-preservation. Many of us bypassed them and went higher up and always heard "this is the first I'm hearing of this." Formalized paths to career advancement and equity shares were practically begged for and fell on deaf ears. Along with all cries for pay gap rectification. When your boss makes more than double your pay at one pay grade higher there is a problem. Then seeing those of the ladies deserving more, get lied to about why they will not be paid the same as the guys at the same level was atrocious. Heard many times over from Brazilian leaders that they "do not need industry experience to lead a team at Gympass." They operate with an ethnocentric approach to everything while telling us at every global call that Gympass is a transcultural company. Company is not profitable, not one company was paying to use Gympass while I was there.

Thank you for your feedback. We recognize that communication down through our organization is something that can always be improved and we are continually working on. With that being said, certainly we would address any instances where information is being purposely withheld. Regarding your comments on wages paid, we take great care to ensure that this does not happen at the organization. We have invested in an external market data tool which we used to develop compensation bands for each level of the organization. When a new employee enters the organization, we review their compensation within that band and within the context of other employees in the same roles and level. We conduct regular audits of employee salaries ensure we are maintaining equity. There have certainly been no occasions where employees are provided false information regarding their pay or our pay practices.
