Ladder (TX) Reviews

I've been a part of a number of startups, each with their own pros and cons, and none have had their sh*t together as much as Ladder. Given just how much the team has accomplished since March, you'd think the company was comprised of way more people, but nahh—we're just a small team that knows how to get stuff done. A huge bonus for me is that since the company is smaller, there's a level of transparency and openness that I've not experienced with other jobs. Our CEO and founders are an incredible force who are all so approachable and are always open to new ways/ideas on how to further grow/innovate the company. Their passion definitely sets the company culture as this is an incredibly driven bunch. This is also my first job in the fitness industry, and I gotta say—I love it. Not only have I had the opportunity to meet some of the top trainers in our country, but part of my job is also testing out their workouts. So yeah, part of my job is working out—it's pretty freakin' baller. All in all, I love the team, I love the company, and I love the work I do.

The team is a tight knit, highly functioning, highly motivated group of people that passionately work toward building a product that is revolutionizing the fitness industry. The C-suite are accomplished and intelligent but leave their egos at the door, They make sure every employee's contribution is recognized and have built a culture of ownership and passion for the company. I have been in a few startups but none have matched the type of drive this group has. I look forward to waking up, getting to worked and work weekends/long hours because of genuine enjoyment for the job. Another pro is the vertical. Fitness is a passion of mine and getting the opportunity to work directly with elite fitness trainers and influencers is a really cool experience. My job function extends beyond the computer in a variety of ways...trying out workouts, running photo shoots, etc.. The model of elite trainer led, mobile first fitness programs is showing incredible potential with recent launches and I truly believe this company is going to grow to be a house hold name like Peloton.
