Pros

Fast Growing. Forward thinking Company. Leadership it thoughtful and tries to remain grounded in the beliefs they started the company. The team is actually quite young with makes adaption and reaction time extremely quick.

Cons

With fast growth comes growing pains. Departments are expanding new teams are developed almost on a quarterly basis. Be so young as a company and as a team TLI sometimes lacks the "journeyman" experience needed to mentor teams and department, but TLI knows this and actively tries to adjust and adapt to these needs.

Hi, Thanks for your review, totally appreciate your honesty and feedback. One of the things we discuss at the executive level is the growth curve and need to mentor others. We are going to Beta a program in Q1 and early Q2 in 2019 and once we get those results, we will likely open the floodgates. Again thanks for your review and your commitment to the company...we are a bunch of nutty people sometimes and I appreciate you sticking it out. (grin) Andrew Kordek Co-Founder.

Pros

Lots of room to create your own structure and process. Respectful that employees are people. The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service. Tons of opportunity for learning. Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.

Cons

It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

Pros

You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.

Cons

The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines. It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations. They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously. We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues. Again, thank you for the feedback.
