Quartet Health Reviews

Pros

Incredible people working to address a huge gap in our healthcare system. Employees are connected on a personal level to the larger mission which helps everyone push through the obstacles and barriers that we face. There are tons of opportunity for personal growth as we continue to scale.

Cons

Constant change as every growing startup experiences. Scaling from a 10 to 50 to 150 person company is not easy as processes and culture evolve.

Advice to Management

Continue to focus on the larger mission, hire A+ people and to celebrate the small victories.

Pros

Really smart colleagues, folks really want to do well by doing good. A lot has changed since I left, by all accounts for the better. Not many companies, or leaders, would boldly embrace the magnitude of change that Quartet has, and truly needed to.

Cons

Mission is a little fuzzy vis a vis the business model.

Pros

I work with intelligent and engaging people as my co-workers We're not corporate, you get to be yourself and feel safe My manager is fantastic. He supports me and will step in if I need him to, or he's hands off and just trusts me to get my work done in the office or from home. It doesn't matter where I do it, as long as it's done and i'm happy.

Cons

All the change happened at once, but it's for the greater good of the business and our mission.

Advice to Management

We have an opportunity to get this right. Keep trusting everyone to do great work, stay outcome focused, have one plan in place and keep it on track.

Pros

The mission is the same, but management and the board listened to the frustrations of the team and made changes. They promoted the chief science officer to CEO and promoted a new head of product. The new leaders refocused on goals, strategies, and initiatives. I’m exited for the new direction and focus.

Cons

We still try and do to many things at the same time, though at least now the work is shared across the company uniformly

Advice to Management

Keep listening, keep the focus clear and direct

Pros

* Great mission, and some really smart, dedicated, generous and talented people. * Working for a good cause feels good, even on tough days * Slightly more diverse than other companies (although very few Black employees, and women in leadership seem to get shuffled around a suspicious amount) * Unique employees contribute to a vibrant culture... mental health awareness panels, zumba class, lightning talks, tech meetups,...

Cons

Quartet attracts great people, but is not good at retaining them. Burning people out, despite the company having a reasonable amount of money and hiring resources at this point. Bad top-level leadership in product, design and tech. Told most of the design team to leave because of a supposed "lack of positivity", throwing products into chaos while new designers and product managers got up to speed. CTO unable to maintain...

Advice to Management

Get back to the roots of your culture: valuing transparency, the ability to speak honestly, and good work. Also keep hiring diverse people (and give them equal pay and opportunities for advancement). Scaling is important -- we want to connect more people to mental healthcare -- but you don't have to sell your soul and turn into a Corporation to get there.

Pros

I liked the start up vibes

Cons

Things changed a lot which made it hard

Pros

Fantastic mission Would rate 5 stars if not for issues at the top Super smart team members Great investors

Cons

CEO Horrific culture Leads by fear and intimidation Gender inequality so apparent

Advice to Management

I came for the mission as did most of my colleagues. Despite a CEO who simply doesn’t understand the first thing about leadership, this is a great company. He blames everyone but himself, talks poorly about those who have left, and can’t seem to keep a female executive on his team.So many hard working people who want to do great things. I am going to hang in there and hope that all these really smart people figure out...

Pros

Modern, casual, team-oriented, diverse, great culture

Cons

None, none, none, none, none!

Advice to Management

Amazing job! I feel the environment is very lax yet people take their work seriously. Micromanaging is not the way and Quartet gets that.
