Stay away if you care about your career
|
|
Amazing and talented people. People made the company great.
|
Amazing and talented people led into the ground by delusional and lying leadership. Sadly, Anju's acquisition was the fatal blow in salvaging any good culture left in Zephyr.

C'mon, It's embarrassing.
|
|
I can't think of too many positives or meaningful things to say besides: I get paid on time.
I guess the unlimited vacation policy is a pretty great perk but nowadays it's becoming a standard in almost any Bay Area company.
|
It's interesting to read the stunning contrast between the positive and negative here. You immediately notice a pattern: Once in a while a negative review shows up, and 3-4 days later "positive" review(s) surface, praising Zephyr as "an amazing company." Clearly trying to balance or reduce the impact of negative reviews.
Take it from an insider, most of the negative reviews here are spot on. While the positive ones are just smoke and mirrors, attempting to create a false feeling of ‘It's the most wonderful place on earth.’ It's embarrassing to read these reviews as it's attempting to paint Zephyr in too much of a "pink light", but that's to cover up on all the atrocious things going on over here.
I've seen individuals promoted twice within 5 months with no real merit or substance. If a promotion is an advancement based on contribution or good performance, I would expect these individuals to be exceptional super stars that are just producing above and beyond for the company. However, they've been around for a while and their contribution and work hasn't changed much for the better or become substantially more meaningful that it justifies promoting twice. It just raises the question ‘What's the rush?’ Management is just trying to cover up something or silence a storm in the background.

Almost everyone in the company is actively searching at this point because of all that's going on.
Stop quick fix solutions to problems, address the elephant or elephants in the room.

2017 the year of vanity promotions
|
|
If you stay around long enough and flatter your manager you're bound to get a promotion in title, not skill or influence.
|
The culture is horrendous with a management team comprised of sycophants who have all been elevated to Director or VP level without merit. The product has barely matured in 2 years, sales are dismal and funding is drying up.

If you're trying to prevent employee churn by promoting the entire staff, it's having the opposite affect. If everyone gets promoted, no one get promoted. If people who clearly aren't ready for management become management it's demotivating to IC's who contribute far more than the newly formed management.

Fun, Challenging, Exciting
|
|
Great product that is moving quickly to fit more and more market needs. Fantastic team with a huge variety of experience that work well and like each other. Excitement of watching our business accelerate. The leadership team makes sure we are empowered and equipped to be successful in our roles and as a company.
|
Typical startup challenges (that I find fun, personally): Quick changes in plans to meet customer needs. All-hands-on-deck to find solutions to unforeseen complications. All the things that a smaller company should be doing to succeed.

Honestly love working at Zephyr Health
|
|
- Consists of an extremely diverse group of talents, all eager to make our product better
- We are constantly evolving and that includes improving our communication across the teams
- We all share a common goal, therefore the amount of finger-pointing is minimal and we really do come together, both within a team and with other teams
- I personally really enjoy the culture here - it's not perfect, but nothing is set in stone and I'm never afraid to speak up
|
With every startup comes the problem of trying to remain consistent, such as having better documentation practice or communication, which we are definitely always working on!
The stress level can be high at times, so if you're not one willing to take on more tasks or initiate projects, this place may not be suitable for you - this is not a con for me, but just want to make sure whoever is reading this understands.

You should look here.
|
|
This company has a lot of talent. In an area where you don't even have to leave the street to find a new job it is amazing that all this talent is under one roof. The vibe is energetic and product is in high demand.
I have watched this company grow from a "do what you have to to get the product out the door", to a well formulated process, looking for security, reliability and accountability before the product gets out the door.
There is an extensive use of documentation, and there is a lot of people who can help if it is needed.
There is a very strong board of trustees as well from very highly regarded tech leaders in silicon valley. They won't let this place fail.
Everyone is an owner, the stock is real not some shady shadow unit or whatever.
|
Startups are not easy. Many fail way before they get to the maturity level of Zephyr. This can cause an environment were people need to be agile and supportive. This can also cause stress levels to be higher, target dates have a lot more meaning than with larger established companies. There are times when people will pull into their own shell when they need to get out and push, management needs to show them the way.

Trust your people. Don't worry so much as to where they are, or what time they get in. Worry about vision and direction and trust your people to live up to your expectations. With this level of talent, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

The gig is up
|
|
New CEO has brought stability, but little to no software development know how, ZERO product thinking, and is a pretty much a process oriented big company bureaucrat without a single big idea in his head.
The team is in a better place now, but only because the bar was set so low by the old CEO that a demented five year old would have been a major improvement.
|
We've raised almost $100 MM and have nothing to show for it beyond a handful of Clients that do small consulting projects with us and a cap table filled with people who will line their pockets before any employee ever sees a dollar.

Tell the truth. The cap table has hundreds of millions of shares and investors have liquidation preferences rendering employee options worthless. We are bleeding money and a down round is inevitable.
The finances and cap table were badly mismanaged by the previous regime and the former CEO (William F King IV) doesn't care because he cashed out.
Him getting himself fired doesn't stop him from constantly seeking media attention to feed his enormous ego.
Randomly giving spot bonuses and raises across the board in an effort to improve retention rates helps but it would be better to know this place was actually going somewhere.
William King isn't the CEO and hasn't been since he got fired over a year ago, so let's take him name and title off this site already.
