New York, NY
Headway is a fast-growing, mission-driven mental-health startup (making therapy work with insurance) that attracts people who care about the mission and, on its good days, describes a supportive, compassionate culture. But reviews name a real tension: 'chaotic leadership and a lack of psychological safety,' burnout risk, and the intensity of a company scaling very fast. Glassdoor sits ~3.7-3.8/5 with only ~59-61% recommending and low career-growth marks. It's meaningful work with startup turbulence, great if you want mission and pace, harder if you need stability and steady management.
