Beware of false friends - Anonymous employee Tenon Tours Employee Review

I am so happy to have found Tenon Tours! I love the size of the company, because you have so much opportunity to interact with team members across roles, and you can tell that everyone really wants the company to be successful. When we have to adjust our ways of working, everyone is willing to do so in order to make the best possible experience for our travelers. Everyone is supportive of one another and always willing to help each other when needed. It's always a team effort. And our clients love working with us! Some of my favorite benefits: *ability to work remotely / full time remote if you are not near one of the offices *company kickoff once a year where the entire team comes together *your birthday off! *Travel Bank funds to help support our personal travels

While remote working is both a pro and a con, I wish we had more opportunity to all come together as a company. Very hard to do though as we grow! With the majority of our team working remotely / in clusters and across timezones, communication can be challenging at times, but we are always looking for ways to improve it.

The office environment has a diverse group of people with different personalities and interests who all get along and are super welcoming and supportive. There's always something new to learn and someone always has some experience or knowledge that they're willing to share and that they're passionate about. I always feel like my voice is heard and my questions are answered, and I'm not afraid to speak up or ask about something when I'm unsure. I have learned so much over the past year and feel like I'm growing in my position and with the company. If you work well on a team and you have a positive attitude, you're going to be successful here. If you are just looking to move up through the ranks quickly without being a productive and contributing team member, this is probably not the place for you. The team aspect is what makes it all work so well :)

There's a lot of knowledge to acquire and retain, and it's a very fast-paced environment in the busy season. People are depending on you to handle their once-in-a-lifetime trips properly so it can feel overwhelming at times. However, the managing director was supportive during any stressful times and showed appreciation for our work. Feeling valued is one of my most important motivators at work and that balances out any feelings of pressure or stress in the workplace. If I have a bad day, sometimes I sit back and think of the jobs I had before and honestly my worst day here can't even compare to good days with previous employers. I am really lucky to work with the people at Tenon Tours.
