Pros

Talented people within should be looking for an opportunity to get off the ride.

Cons

The layoff process was a disaster. What a way to make an employee feel not valued and like dirt. The call was awkward and not well done. HR looked inept and should be embarrassed about how this was handled. We didn’t get our agreements until several days later and some of us received two versions. They tore apart teams, but kept parts of business units intact. People were also promoted so what a slap in the face to see someone posting about losing their job while someone else was promoted to an executive level position. Speaking of HR, they eliminated the only well run HR team, which was the Advance team. They eliminated some long standing and successful sales reps and people in product and finance. It felt like a game of darts by someone with impaired vision. There was little logic to whom was left behind across the board.

Pros

This is a real, mission-driven company. I think the best thing is the people - across functions, at every level, you encounter people who are sharp, collaborative, and kind. When you work somewhere whose core purpose is making healthcare more accessible to more people, it makes the work better, even on hard days. Teladoc has been through a rocky couple years (as has industry), but recently it seems like the strategy is clearer, the org is better aligned, and the leadership is more focused. Chuck is a transparent and visible leader (eg town halls, all employee email/memos) and genuinely seems like exactly the right person we need in the seat right now. I appreciate that when there's hard news, it's delivered with context, and when there's good news, it's connected to the stategy (and doesn't feel phony). Benefits are pretty decent. I like that they do gym reimbursement, and free BetterHelp (which is owned by Teladoc).

Cons

There have been tough moments (reorgs, market pressure, strategic pivots) and the pace of change has been hard (likely similar to others in industry), but I appreciate that though all that it seems like management has made a real effort to do right by employees, and be transparent.

Pros

Mission-driven work with genuinely smart, thoughtful people who care deeply about improving healthcare. Opportunity to have outsized impact, especially if you’re comfortable building while flying the plane. Senior leaders are often open to ideas and there’s room to shape functions, systems, and ways of working (if you’re proactive.)

Cons

Frequent reorgs, shifting priorities, and leadership turnover can create change fatigue and ambiguity. Teams operate reactively, which can make long-term planning difficult and create trust gaps across functions. Roles and ownership often feel unclear. High performers often take on significantly expanded scope quickly. Alignment happens late (or, due to not listening to expertise getting provided upfront) - leading to rework, frustration, and time wasted.
