BetterUp disappointed me so much that I started to doubt their ethics and methods. The first sales contact sounded more like a hard-sell for a subscription service than like a discussion about tailored coaching. The representative was so aggressive that I felt as though I was under pressure to purchase a TV package or gym membership instead of making professional development investments.

For some time, I have been using BetterHelp for treatment; but, my most recent experience truly let me down. Technical problems on their end caused me to miss a planned session; I contacted their support team in hopes they would fix things. Rather, I received a lot of copy-paste responses utterly la...
