Vantaggi

- The people are great and the pay is decent. Note: The company solicits reviews from employees so do not believe everything you read on here. The culture also dramatically varies across office locations, so pay close attention to the location that you are looking at.

Svantaggi

- Work life balance is horrible, employees frequently work long hours and are expected to drop important plans last minute. - Management does not respect employees - Employees, especially women, are frequently spoken to in a way that is not appropriate in any environment, especially at work. Lewd, demeaning, and derogatory comments are frequent and unwelcome and unfortunately occur with no assistance from HR. - Management does not coach employees or help them develop their skills, several employees have been fired but received little to no coaching to even attempt to help them be more successful in their role. - It's been said before but employees are constantly walking on eggshells. Job security is not a reality at Wodify. - Growth opportunities are scarce or non-existent. - Mistakes are tracked and feedback is scarce - The company says they encourage learning from failures but employees that fail even once are heavily criticized and frequently leave the company shortly after.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review, we really appreciate the candid feedback. We want to continue progressing and growing as a company and we are grateful to hear about your experience. We’re really sorry to hear you didn’t have a great experience at Wodify. Our goal is to be very transparent from the hiring process, it seems like there were some misaligned expectations, and we’ll certainly take this into consideration for the benefit of our employees. We are really proud of the team that we have and we do tend to pay above market rates. We have two awesome offices, one in Portugal and one in the US, naturally, there can be some cultural differences between offices in two different countries. We make every effort possible to align our offices with a common mission and values. In regards to soliciting reviews, Glassdoor encourages employers to request reviews from their employees. It is common practice, see for yourself on Glassdoor's blog! As we transition from a small startup to a mid-sized company, there are times when hard work and putting in extra time comes with the job. Wodify values hard, smart work and great performance. We believe it’s really important for the success of the organization! I’m really sorry to hear you didn’t feel respected. We do not ever want you to feel unsafe or unwelcomed at Wodify. We take this type of complaint seriously and we would hope you do reach out to alert our team about any instances of inappropriate behavior. Earlier this year we implemented bi-weekly check-ins between managers and employees to encourage feedback and coaching. If you require an inordinate amount of coaching and feedback, this type of environment may not be for you. Employees who perform well have had and can have growth opportunities within the organization, as we have many examples of this in the company. We are a smaller sized company so there isn’t a big corporate ladder to climb, which again, we are transparent about in the hiring process. Our hope is to continue to improve our internal structure so that there is a clear career path for everyone, we hear you loud and clear and we realize employee growth is key to our continued success. Nevertheless, we are always happy to listen to any suggestions or feedback provided by employees. We use a tool for employees to provide anonymous feedback, so employees feel comfortable expressing any concerns they have. We want to welcome you to open a discussion with us in regards to your feedback, please feel free to reach out to us.

Vantaggi

- The pay is not great, but almost industry standard.

Svantaggi

- As mentioned by plenty of others here, the fundamental problem is severe mismanagement by leadership. Those that work close with the c-suite know that they are at the mercy of the founder who often personally attacks employees and insults customers. From talking to everyone who has worked with him, he is known to be an abusive character who will fire anyone on a whim. While it is a known problem in the company, nobody will step up to change it for fear of being fired. - The company has been around for over a decade and their software still looks like it is from the early 2010s. If you join Wodify with the hopes of building innovative and well-designed software, you will be severely disappointed. Tech stack uses an outdated no-code software that creates generic looking Android-style apps that users are just barely okay with. The only value they have is in existing customers who don't want to go through the hassle of switching. New companies are popping up that do everything Wodify does, look much better, and cost a fraction of a price. The company is going nowhere and their hopes of selling are frankly delusional. - The company culture is non-existent. They have a small Wework office in Philadelphia that usually has 1 or 2 people and the office in Denver is just a few desks. On the inside, people talk about how they can just coast by and are waiting until a better option comes along.
