Amazing founder - Brand Manager Orgain Employee Review

Orgain is a mission driven organization with the goal of helping people live healthier more vibrant lives. Our CEO Andrew, and the whole ELT are great to work with. There is a level of humanity at Orgain that isn't present at many companies. Each person is treated with respect and kindness, like they actually matter (because they do), vs just being a number, etc. The positive culture permeates the organization.

No real cons. As with any company there are issues that pop up, but generally they are handled very well.

Some coworkers are genuinely good people doing their best in a dysfunctional system. You’ll learn how to spot red flags quickly for your next job.

Remote and hybrid employees are second-class citizens. Collaboration is performative at best, exclusionary at worst. Important conversations happen behind closed doors—or at in-office desks. Toxic politics thrive. Advancement is based on popularity, not performance. If you're not part of the inner circle, good luck. Zero work-life balance. Boundaries are non-existent. Expect Slack messages and passive-aggressive emails at all hours. Too many conflicting voices. Projects are paralyzed by indecision and ego. Nothing moves unless it’s personally endorsed by leadership. Leadership hides dysfunction behind “wellness.” Internal meetings are filled with unsolicited medical and lifestyle advice, often triggering to those with lived experiences around body image or eating disorders. Classism is baked into the culture. There’s a clear divide between those who lead and those who serve—and it shows in every meeting, every “perk,” and every policy. Cult-like behavior is encouraged. Dissent is not welcomed. Honest feedback is dismissed as negativity, while empty enthusiasm is rewarded.
