Creatively oppressive and cliquey - Anonymous employee Tines Employee Review

In the welcoming package, the CEO claims it's a place to express your ideas and be creative with your colleagues, but I've never worked in such a creatively oppressive and cliquey place. Forced to stick to a dated strategy as it suited members of other teams to achieve their goals rather than exploring new and more effective ways of doing things and actually make an impact for my own team and the company overall. This means the role is a stenographer for others rather than something creative or strategic, which it would be in any other company that had an ounce of creative ambition. Endless meetings about the same topics that completely wasted time and drained energy. Certain members of other teams really diffcult to work with. Complete dismissal of any strengths I had and why I was hired in the first place. Felt incredibly demeaned and unsupported by the end.
