Pros

Remote work environment, annual team meetups, benepass monthly benefits, internal bonus platform (Bonusly)

Cons

ClassPass cannot figure out how to be straight with their customers or the partners that list on their app. There isn't enough demand in the market so they will just list random businesses without asking them and hope they accept the reservation. Refuses to properly staff customer support to handle insanely high volume. You will be asked to do more without any additional compensation, which is already below industry standard. CX leadership and directors have zero experience actually running a CX department or what good support looks likes. Continually asks for improvements while burning all employees out. The Chief Customer Officer left and they didn't bother to replace them, support rolls into revenue which is completely atrocious for getting any additional support or development as a support person. Instead of being able to help customers, leaders want support to act as a retention team to angry users who cannot figure out the incredibly convoluted credit and free trial system. They reward employees who work on weekends and late into the evening, calling them out publicly for their dedication, which basically means unless you are willing to have no work life balance, you will be seen as doing the bare minimum.

Pros

There's some nice benefits, like ClassPass credits, good insurance, and remote.

Cons

First and foremost, if you're a POC, you need to stay far away from this place. There is absolutely no diversity, and majority of the sales org, including the leaders, are white women. The managers lack skill, and don't know how to sell or manage. They only became managers because of their connections or because they were there in the early days of ClassPass and stayed long enough to get promoted. Nothing based on merit or skill. The sales culture is very churn and burn. The retention rate is so low, and this company is like a revolving door. You become a "veteran" or senior employee if you have worked there longer than 4 months. They have extremely unrealistic goals for the sales org, and the leads are awful. And it's because the company is terrible, and doesn't invest in partner services or support, so gyms and salons tend to have a bad experience because the resources and support they have for them are abysmal. Not to mention the bad reputation that ClassPass has; if you call a lead that has been called before, you will get extremely frustrated owners. They will tell you that ClassPass reps are harassing them by constantly calling, but that is what you are taught to do as a rep. To wrap it all up, there is no diversity, incompetent leaders, and bad reputation.
