Modern Health Reviews

My experience working at Modern Health was easily the worst in my life. The CEO, Alyson Friedensohn Watson, talked to me many times about doing things I considered clearly unethical. Many employees were fired seeming at random by the CEO. From my long experience with her, Alyson is incompetent and volitile. She has been sued by not one, but two investors, and she's been sued by her own cofounder for claims including making fraudulent statements to customers and investors, mistreating employees, and taking inappropriate risks with patient health and safety (just google "Modern Health lawsuit"). I'd rather just ignore this company and move on from my experience, but I felt like I should write this review because I'm so surprised there there are any positive reviews on this site, and I wonder who really wrote them (the app store reviews tell a darker story). I would strongly caution anyone against working here.

While the company asks every employee to take on a lot there are few chances to officially grow or be recognized. There is no alignment internally with our external values of supporting mental health, inclusion, and more. Anything the company does is for the sake of good press which makes it performative and fake. Employees have been stating publicly that they are burned out for months now (working 60-70 hour weeks) and the company is not doing anything to encourage work life balance (by hiring more people to help support, having supportive management, or anything else). We are underpaid and overqualified. Leadership is not supportive and internal interactions are tense (not to mention there's only ONE executive who is BIPOC). People are being fired randomly and silently on a regular basis. I expected better from a company that looks so good on paper. I do not feel supported.
