Pros

There are no pros working for an organisation who hire and fire, bully their people and big themselves up to cover all the cracks

Cons

- One of the co founders is an out and out bully, makes people cry and has no shame in humiliating one person in front of everyone. Peppy have yet to address this issue and dent it. I welcome a response to this as I’m sick of reading a poor response of “this should have been bought to our attention”…. It has and nothing was done about it. - Let go over 20 people, yet weeks later all the roles are being readvertised. Seriously? Isn’t the whole point of reducing headcount to reduce headcount? I can only assume they are clawing back shares they offered employees to give to a potential investor instead. Goes to show the confounders will go to any lengths for their own gain and will screw over anyone and everything to get their own way and have their five minutes of fame speaking with an investor - the LinkedIn accolades and “top employer to work for” is a pathetic cover up of covering the cracks at peppy, don’t fall for it. These “awards” are purely awarded on data, not how people feel in their roles. - have no hr structure in place, how they let 10% of the work force and the manner was a disgrace. No empathy, done on a zoom call and getting underpaid in the last pay check too was disgusting.

Peppy Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I can see that you are a former employee, which indicates you might have been let go in our recent headcount reductions. Alongside other tech companies, we've had to review our financial profile and we were very sad to let go approximately 10% of our team in late August. Before that time, we had an average GlassDoor rating of 4.7 built up over 3 years. We also published our employee engagement survey in July prior to the headcount reductions [link below]. Our positive results showed that 92% of employees wouldn’t leave Peppy, 94% of employees believe in Peppy’s mission and 84% of employees feel cared for at Peppy. In addition, our 0.6% average of voluntary leavers indicates that we very rarely see team members leave, either before or after the headcount reductions. Our focus is to continue making Peppy a great place to work for our current and future employees and to provide essential healthcare service for our users; services like menopause that they can’t get anywhere else. We wish you all the best in your future. Source: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/getpeppy_engagement-survey-results-activity-6957635361640456193-Wj4J/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

Pros

Cohesive team with a truly collaborative culture Brilliant mission that makes the work feel meaningful Strong leadership- Mridula returning as CEO has been a game-changer, there are plenty of opportunities for professional growth and development, it is a supportive environment where ideas are welcomed and acted on

Cons

Pace can be fast and priorities shift quickly- not for those who prefer predictability. Growing pains that come with scaling, but leadership is tackling them.

Pros

- Peppy is a mission led business with very ambitious goals and it is truly exciting to be able to contribute to those goals. - Great People - this goes hand in hand with being mission led. The people of Peppy are all very passionate about the support the business provides which has made the internal environment and culture extremely positive. - Collaborative Environment - you will have the opportunity to work with a lot of different team members as well as the co-founders, on a daily basis. - High Growth - rapid growth of the business has allowed employees to grow within their own teams and even start and lead new teams. - Ever Evolving - new clients and employees join the business on a monthly basis so there is always something (or someone) new to get to know! I have been in the startup space for my entire career and Peppy has been the best business I have ever worked for. The mission is incredible, the co-founders are down to earth and the growth potential for Peppy is not only tremendous, but inevitable. I am so happy to have found a mission led business to work for, it has made my days much more fulfilling and given me a true purpose in my work.

Cons

I have not found a con since I joined Peppy!
