Wellhub Careers, Benefits, Review

To fulfill our mission it is essential to ensure every team member feels welcomed, valued, and empowered to bring their whole selves to work. We're committed to building a culture and environment that supports and celebrates diversity among our team and in our business practices. 

Bringing our unique experiences, cultures, and perspectives together helps us do great things. We aim to be an inclusive and equitable workplace where everyone can develop their full potential.

Affinity Groups

With the help of our employee-led affinity groups, we lead numerous awareness and engagement initiatives.

We have 14 employee-led affinity groups globally which give the opportunity for people that share a particular identity (and their allies) to talk about their shared experiences and issues affecting them. Some of our affinity groups include Women@Wellhub, Wellhub Black Power, Pride Club, AGW (Asians at Wellhub), Jews at Wellhub, and Juntos (Hispanic/Latinx). 

As a global organization, we have set up regional groups that coordinate with their global counterparts. This allows Wellhubbers to gather with local peers and host meetings in their native language, but also share experiences with international colleagues who share their identification.

5 Year Commitment  

In 2021, we launched a 5 Year Commitment to keep pushing for diversity, equity, and belonging in our processes, practices, and company culture. As part of this commitment, we created a Global Belonging Advisory Board to oversee the key company-wide initiatives and push for accountability and visible results.

The beginning of our journey

Our health and wellness concept began with our Co-Founder and CEO, Cesar Carvalho, in 2011. While working as a consultant at McKinsey & Co, he found it difficult to find reasonably priced gyms when traveling for work.

One year later, as Cesar was juggling an MBA at Harvard Business School and continuing work at McKinsey, he found himself still thinking about fitness options that were flexible, fun, and affordable. He left HBS and took the first steps toward building the company. In 2012, Cesar, along with friends Vinicius Ferriani and Joao Barbosa, founded Gympass, which became Wellhub in 2024.

Who we are today

Wellhub is a corporate wellness platform that connects employees to the best partners for fitness, mindfulness, therapy, nutrition, and sleep, all included in one subscription designed to cost less than each individual partner.

Wellness for the future of work

More than 15,000 companies in 11 countries use Wellhub to give their millions of employees access to best-in-class corporate wellbeing programs that are proven to drive widespread employee adoption and engagement. 

With Wellhub, employees can check-in with their wellbeing every day. The result is better productivity, higher retention, and lower healthcare costs. This is the Wellhub Effect.
