Beware - Prospective employees are attracted to companies like Robin that offer opportunities for growth and development. Unfortunately, Robin does not follow through with delivering these benefits. The sales team was encouraged to use a professional development stipend before the end of the year. Employees were expected to pay for books, mentorship, and sales apps upfront with the expectation that the company would reimburse individuals. We were continuously pressured to use this benefit by management before the end of the year. On January 6th, most of the employees who did use this benefit were laid off and not paid out for the stipend. The CFO forced people to cancel subscriptions to mentorship programs employees were pressured to sign up for 7 days prior. Approval for the reimbursement went through the management team and the HR team prior to the playoffs. I can only speak for myself but mine was approved (as I am sure others were as well). Robin neglected to honor the benefit to people who were laid off because they no longer had to deal with them. The executive team is sneaky and will lie directly to your face. The sales team held a meeting with leadership and asked for transparency after the first round of layoffs. Instead of being truthful, they lied, reassuring the cuts were "deep enough" and there would not need to be another round of layoffs. 6 weeks later, they eliminated an entire department besides two people.
