Pros

employees are amazing to work with, Product platform used by many Fortune 500 companies and has great growth prospects, unlimited time off, bonus plan being introduced in 2024, Talent Success team is amazing, as is the benefits team. Many new employee focused benefits introduced in 2022 and 2023. New CFO is great and has brought necessary financial discipline with spend.

Cons

Confused exec team that lacks clear strategy and direction, Many new members (feels like a revolving door of execs!) - this is the symptom of running to the market to be a public company first without clearly understanding what is necessary to be successful. There are talks about diversity and inclusion, but it is a joke. The exec team is full of tenured white people from the industry with no TMG representation. Huge gap between exec comp and employee comp. Company went through a restructuring in 2023, but the exec team still had huge equity grants in 2023 which is very disappointing!

Pros

Employees are encouraged to explore AI and automation tools, which creates strong opportunities to build future-relevant skills and experiment with process improvements beyond traditional role boundaries.

Cons

There can be a strong culture around visibility and perception here. In practice, employees often learn that highly visible work tends to carry more weight in performance and compensation discussions than work happening behind the scenes. It creates an environment where people naturally optimize for exposure rather than long-term process improvement. For prospective employees, especially those who prefer impact-driven work over visibility-driven work, It's worth thinking carefully about whether this environment aligns with your working style and career expectations.
