Amazing team and atmosphere - loved everything about this accelerator program!
|
During the programs, work lasts till late - 8pm or so, since there are lectures, workshops, or events. It’s not really a problem - I loved every second of it!!

Great company and team - Innovation experts
|
|
This team constantly thinks about how to elevate women entrepreneurs and they are doing it globally. Not just through women, but also through program s for male leaders to help them see that innovation can't happen if not everyone is represented in the thought process.
This is a fast moving, no B.S. organization who gets things done.
|
None - except I wish they could be in every region of the world!

Pioneering place to be
|
|
So few people are doing what Ari and Co. have bravely pioneered in the Valley: a consistent, strong, supportive program for female founders from around the world.
|
Expansion into other markets globally, and even locally as close as SF, will help extend the brand and support women who can't make the commute to the Valley.

High-Energy Startup on a Mission!
|
|
This company and CEO's vision are doing important work around the GLOBE. Is it easy? No. But great accomplishments are seldom achieved on a smooth path. This company gets stuff done and at the heart of every team member are the women founders that they support. We are constantly striving to do better, be better and lift each other up so that we can then elevate the lives of women around the globe and the communities they serve.
This CEO has amazing, powerful relationships that she has put a lot of time and energy into building and as a result she can move mountains.
It is an honor and a pleasure to serve on this team of the most hard-working, creative thinking individuals I have ever met.
|
This is not an environment for the lazy thinker or someone who needs the test answers given to them. You have to hustle every day and the to-do list is never done. Some people thrive on that and others don't. Unfortunately, those who don't have left negative reviews that are unwarranted.
Also, Glassdoor lists Karen Katz as CEO but she is not. So, I think there are some incorrect details here on Glassdoor.

Great Vision, Poor Work Environment
|
|
Fantastic passion and drive, wonderful founders, situated in the Silicon Valley area. Some lovely folks on the team at any given time.
|
Do not honor their commitment to team and contractors. High turnover internally and externally driven by over-allocation and under-compensation; not committing to and completing projects; unavailability of key team and chronically empty or newly-filled roles; frequent late payment (1 month +); refusal to pay contractors in full for completed work; unnecessary frequent overnight and weekend work resulting from insufficient planning and expectations not comparable to compensation levels. Be sure to get every commitment in writing.

Most amazing experience of my life
|
|
Incredible opportunity to make a difference; incredible team of really smart people, visionary CEO, great exposure to Silicon Valley's big names,
|
Not for the lazy- it takes a lot of work to make a real difference and we do work hard; also we work with female founders around the country and around the globe so you can't count on a straight 9-5 - to me that's not a con but if that's what you want this is not the job for you

Keep doing what you're doing - I've worked here for 2 years now and it's so great to have a solid, stable, incredible team sharing a common mission and outlook - it wasn't necessarily true in the beginning but staff upgrades have made it the most amazing place to work!!

The Worst Experience

|
This seems like a great company at first
|
But in fact, it scams female entrepreneurs and abuses employees.

You get to work with very inspirational/motivational workers

The company was very unorganized.

The best decision of my life....!!!
|
|
WSLAB is single handedly the best thing that happened to me during my entrepreneurial journey. I’m very thankful for such a wonderful opportunity. WSLAB is a different kind of accelerator. They don’t have all of the answers; they don’t meddle in your business or tell you how to go about launching your first marketing campaign. What the team at WSLAB has perfected, is giving you the tools to handle all of the above and more. This accelerator focuses on the ONE thing that matters most in running a business – YOU! The female entrepreneur! If you’re open and willing, the program can be quite transformative.
The program was challenging, scary, emotional, uncomfortable, and is not meant for everyone. I was broken down to the core, but then emerged as a whole new woman and CEO when I completed the program. I had to declare my strengths and let go of my weaknesses. WSLAB makes you deal with the real sh*t that’s going on in your life – past and present. The program forces you to focus on, and overcome, the personal issues that hold you back from true greatness, so they don’t show up later on when you’re raising money, building a product, or going through an acquisition.
I left the program stronger, more focused, and open to the greatness that lies ahead of me – all while having a new and deeply connected ‘family’ in San Francisco. I truly understood and accepted the role I have taken on. Not only am I a CEO, but I am a FOUNDER – I am the seed that started this life cycle and I have learned that if you do not love thyself and do the work, the cycle will be a short one.
I challenge every female founder to invest in herself. There are many programs for personal growth, however, WSLAB is truly unique and I am proud to have been a part of the 4th Cohort: ‘The A-hoy Ladies!’
|
The program could have been 3 weeks instead of 2... I didn't want to leave!
