Pros

Great people, pay and benefits.

Cons

You will quickly find the amount of work expected of you to be overwhelming. You are constantly competing for your job against outsourcing. There are terrible decisions Made with finance. When your company has 2 rounds of layoffs, and shuts down an entire department, and then the very next week your CEO decided to announce a summer home for himself and employees only in California it really makes you feel like less of human and more like a disposable number.

Pros

Major pro: the people who work here are very cool. It’s very easy to make friends and grab a virtual coffee with just about anyone. Some of the best and most talented designers that I’ve ever worked with. The ESOP process seemed very promising.

Cons

The CEO. He may be super kind in person. I’ll never know. Unfortunately he comes off super privileged and cannot lead others well, let alone communicate in a way that shows humility or self awareness. Folks are afraid to say “no” to him. Financial decisions do not make sense. There is so much cult-like behavior and toxic positivity at this company. The creative department is undervalued and is scapegoated for mistakes that leadership (including the CEO) caused. Be careful of what you say about work in TMYD. You do not have to disclose your personal trauma on Dream Day. Extreme vulnerability and self disclosure is what cults do to initiate vulnerable people.
