Pros
None- I was so excited for this experience and it was ultimately horrible.
Kontras
My experience at Runwise was extremely disappointing due to poor management, minimal support, and a lack of structure from the start. There was little to no meaningful training or onboarding, which made it difficult to succeed in a role where expectations were not clearly communicated. Rather than providing guidance, feedback, or a plan for improvement, leadership chose to terminate employment after only a short period of time without a clear explanation or constructive path forward.
One of the most concerning parts of my experience was the lack of regard for employee safety. I was asked to hand-deliver flyers outdoors for multiple days during extreme winter weather conditions, including during the polar vortex, after I had already expressed concerns about safety. That experience made me feel unsupported and that employee well-being was not being taken seriously.
Overall, the environment felt disorganized, reactive, and lacking in the management support needed for employees to feel set up for success. I would strongly encourage anyone considering this role to ask detailed questions about onboarding, training expectations, communication structure, and leadership support.
