      Don't be fooled - Marketing Coordinator Golden Hippo Employee Review

      Pros

      Casual attire, dog friendly office, parties, bonuses at Christmas or when kpi goals are hit, fully stocked kitchen, meditation, cross fit, clean bathrooms, flexible hours.

      Cons

      When you land a job at Golden Hippo, you honestly feel like you hit the job search jackpot, for the first 6 months or so. Then the reality hits you: the reality that as a woman you'll never move up as quickly or get paid as much as your male peers who have been there the same length of time as you. The reality that management does not have your back, nor do they even want to get to know you. The reality that fancy parties and intention bracelets, a fully stocked kitchen and cross fit classes are only there to distract you from the fact that they would rather compensate with fancy perks than an actual decent paying wage. The reality that time off is non existent, and if you do take time off for legitimate reasons such as illness, you'll still be treated as if you went to the Bahamas to do blow for a week. The reality that as hard as this company attempts to brainwash you into thinking you are an asset, they can't conceal their true greedy nature. The job isn't about you or your growth potential , it's about selling placebos to people and making billions of dollars doing it. This company is not above the lowest of the low of marketing tactics. This company won't fire men who harass women on the daily, or talk to their employees like scum regardless of gender. I made this company tons of money and still got fired, don't be fooled. You're not an asset, you're a pawn.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I am sorry to hear that you had such a negative experience. The vast majority of our employees are very happy here, well beyond the six-month mark you mentioned. And the reason is not just the many perks the employees enjoy. Golden Hippo is a fast-paced, results-driven company. Our work environment is relaxed, yet highly productive. Hippos thrive here, and the whole company with them. However, we do understand this environment is not a good fit for everybody. Golden Hippo has some of the most talented women onboard. From the VP of Product Development, to the VP of Copywriting, the Director of IT, Director of Supply Chain, Director of Talent Acquisition & Development, all three senior remote HR Managers and so on, women have risen to the most influential positions within the company. Their contributions are key to our success, and like all other Hippos, women are the creators of their own success. Forbes magazine even awarded us “Company Where Women Most Like to Work”. Like our many perks and facilities, our compensation and PTO packages are above average. Our passion to create best-in-class products with the assistance of some of the most renown doctors in their fields, coupled with our exceptional employees, is just one of the reasons we continue our meteoric growth year after year after year. We wish you the best in the next step of your career, and we thank you for your time and energy at Golden Hippo.

      Pros

      The people here are genuinely the highlight. Across departments you'll find collaborative, kind, and talented teammates who make the day-to-day enjoyable. The company also offers real flexibility. Remote and hybrid options are treated as a genuine benefit, not just a recruiting talking point. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and leadership clearly invests in taking care of employees. Beyond the perks, there's a strong sense of purpose behind the work. This is a company that believes in its products and its mission in health and wellness, and that energy is felt throughout the culture.

      Cons

      Hard to find significant complaints at this point. Like any fast-moving company operating across manufacturing, e-commerce, and wellness, things can occasionally feel like a lot of plates spinning at once, but that's more the nature of the industry than a management failure.
