Pros

-Interesting work -health and food benefits -plenty of nice colleagues below leadership level.

Cons

- No one in leadership demonstrates they value and care about staff - Performance review process is toxic and demoralising and uses a bell curve. - Retention is terrible and no indication HR or leadership are doing anything to improve it. - "Flat structure" just means a lack of people taking responsibility. - Ridiculous expectations and poor staff planning

Pros

It looks great on the resume and you learn about cool TikToks and trends. I’m in the GBS org (not in a Sales role). Per diem for food, reimbursement (although the process is horrific not even worth the money), and really sharp team members

Cons

It’s messy; very messy. Things are moving so fast that there’s little strategy and you’re encouraged to say yes to everything and everyone. NO alignment amongst teams—so there are multiple groups working on the same thing and it can’t be stopped. Join for the year and bounce—it’s what a lot of people do. Look at former TT employees on LinkedIn and you’ll see they’re all there for a year and change. They’re also adamant about returning to the office for three days a week which is going to lead to a lot of exits.

Growing Too Quickly, Late To The Culture Party

Pros

The company is expanding quickly so there is lots of growth potential and interest. Really great startup to have on your resume.

Cons

They are really pushing people to go back to office sooner than later even though most companies in the space are moving to a hybrid for fully remote concept. If they do not update the stance on PTO & Remote work they will loose really great talent to other opportunities that offer better work life balance. They also seem to be growing too quickly for their processes and structures to be in a stable place which causes a lot of confusion and frustration for day to day work.
