Pros
free fruit, wellness cards (when that was a thing), plaza parties, benefits (most of these are obsolete now)
Cons
Mindbody decided to lay off 650 employees and furlough 350 due to COVID. While most companies stood by their employees MB did not. After we started working from home they immediately started talking about layoffs. The whole process was very impersonal and done via a mass email sent out at 5:00 AM on April 2nd. This email was the same and stated if you were laid off, got to keep your job, or furloughed. This is creating panic for employees still at the company more than doubling their workload and wondering if there will be more rounds of layoffs. Up until this point there has been silence from upper management on the progression of how Covid is effecting Mindbody's business. Vista the multi-billion dollar equity firm did nothing to help the company survive. In a recent meeting the CEO states that the company has tens of millions of dollars in the bank and STILL decided to lay off employees leaving them without their community and healthcare benefits. The layoffs at Mindbody were a choice not a necessity. Is Mindbody hiding behind Coivid-19 to initiate already planned layoffs so they can outsource jobs to India or area's where it cheaper to employ? Mind you India still has jobs that they are hiring for while the US is not hiring. This would not be the first time Vista has moved jobs to a more affordable region.
