Brunchwork has become such a beautiful community. It’s given so much opportunity to guests to connect and learn so much in a very hands on way. Hearing from some of the top industry professionals and being able to ask them questions and pick their brains is super valuable. We all always learn so much! I would def recommend anyone to try it out. I think you would enjoy yourself and who knows who you’ll wind up meeting there to help you out!

I've been a member of Brunchwork for almost 4 years now and I love it. The lineup of speakers is world-class and the environment is intimate and welcoming for anyone. It's a very natural way of learning and meeting a diverse group of talented individuals with diverse backgrounds around Tech, Arts, and Business. Highly recommended!

I joined Brunchwork in 2019 and attended multiple in-person and online events. My favorite element is the caliber of speakers and I appreciate Paulina's personal and thoughtful touch to foster a sense of community among the members. Just food for thought, I think there is even more room for growth when it comes to the curation of members (e.g. "sub-networks" for founders vs corporate executives vs rising managers, or business vs tech, etc). I look forward to seeing Brunchwork grow further and will be rooting for Paulina, Abby, and the rest of the team!

@ariel_kang Ariel, Thanks for the feedback! We love having you as a member. Interesting idea on the "sub-networks" - it's something worth exploring 100%. I'll reach out to you about that idea or hopefully catch you at one of the upcoming sessions. See you soon :)

The idea sounds great, but their platform and service are terrible. A few thoughts: - The pricing structure is unclear, and they don't communicate it until you ask. - I signed up and received a welcome email, but my login only came hours later - I was unable to watch one of the events because they didn't send me the link - They sent an email with the wrong time for one of their events, leading me to join an hour later and miss it - The process seems overcomplicated. Even as a member, you need to wait for them to send you a Zoom link. Once you try to join the Zoom link, they have to approve you. - The website UX is also awful. - I canceled my membership and still get emails - I did not participate in one of their events and they tagged me on it on LinkedIn as if I had participated, and there's no option to untag yourself. I was also not consulted if they could tag me. Given that a lot of people could use this for networking, that felt a little invasive for me. Anyway, great idea, but it's just not there yet.

@carolnogueira Carol, As I understand from our prior communication, your main criticism of brunchwork stems from finding 2 typos on our platform. You have *not* participated in a single brunchwork event. We promptly cancelled the membership that you *never* started, as soon as you said brunchwork wasn't for you. I thanked you for your feedback multiple times in private, and I am thanking you again now. * Every link you requested was sent to you. We have the email receipts. * Our content newsletter has an unsubscribe button. * Prices are listed on our website. * I personally apologized to you on the timing issue (PST vs. PDT typo in 1 email) after you reached out to me about it on LinkedIn. I explained to you that we had a *last minute, overnight* speaker emergency. In the midst of a global pandemic, emergencies happen. That's why there was a rare typo. * I explained to you that *online security* is the reason behind our Zoom process & the delay with the login. We haven't had a security problem because of the precautions we take. These precautions have not interfered with any other members experience, to my knowledge. I'm proud of our track record keeping our community safe, as other orgs have had challenges there. * The LinkedIn tag you are mentioning was *promptly* taken down, without you asking. I think it was within 5-10 minutes of the post, as soon as our social media assistant was notified that you cancelled your membership. You had RSVP-ed to many events before writing in the cancellation, confusing the support team. * You didn't go through our usual customer support channel (it's a great team and I stand by their work). You repeatedly messaged me on LinkedIn about these issues. I was quite concerned about the large deviation between your experience vs. the typical brunchwork on-boarding experience (across thousands of interactions - I do not think it's accurate to call brunchwork an 'idea' at this point). I didn't pass you on to customer service. I thanked you multiple times in private for flagging the 2 typos you found, and profusely apologized to you for any inconvenience caused. The transcript of the entire exchange is on LinkedIn. We have since fixed the 2 typos that upset you - including the sentence asking people to RSVP for events in the current calendar month (a holdover from our event days, related to minimizing food waste). You wrote to me this *particular sentence* caused you to cancel your membership. Thank you again for flagging the typos. I wished you the very best in private & I do so again now.

I've attend Brunchwork Business Intensive this year (September to November) and I can only recommend if! Small cohort with interesting and nice fellow students, the format is great and engaging despite evertything being on zoom (but that was also my opportunity to participate since they are based in NYC and I am based in London). I learnt a lot from it from the consulting playbook to finance key concepts that will help me with investment and strategic assessment of listed companies. I have also attend few of the Brunchwork talks onlline including one with Disney content director which was extremely insightful. All in all, great concept, very needed and very well delivered - looking forward to see how it keeps growing
