Tempo reviews

We just went through layoffs of nearly the entire marketing and US customer support teams, which led to more people resigning, including 2 of the 3 women at the VP level. Leadership refuses to acknowledge Tempo's high attrition rate and says things like "this is expected with a startup" and "those who want to be here will work hard." Morale is at an all time low, the 5-star reviews here are likely falsified to try and improve our rating. Dozens of people across the company are actively interviewing, others have left with nothing else lined up because of how terrible the environment is. Gender determines whether or not leadership will listen to your input. If you're "chums" with the founders, you can fail to launch projects and still somehow get promoted to oversee departments, even if you don't have any experience in that space.

This is a huge list. Everyone who works or used to work at Tempo will tell you these common elements: 1) Burnout culture: They want you to work long hours on weekdays and there is always weekend work. Taking time off or sick leaves is frowned upon. Unlimited PTO is only for the papers, nobody takes much time off here as they keep on firing people. 2) Fear based toxic work environment: Due to constant firings, which is higher leadership driven people are afraid and the attrition rate in this company is very high. 3) Poor higher leadership: There is a no-trust and high micromanagement culture driven from CEO, CTO, CMO and everyone in leadership position. They constantly doubt you or your work. HR is useless and doesn't do anything to improve the work culture. 4) Short lived fame: The product is driven by pandemic issue, once the pandemic is over the sales of the product will take major hits which means layoffs in this company are always certain. 5) In-Office work: They want people to come to office 3 -4 days a week even in the middle of pandemic. There was a covid outbreak in office and it's still open. They don't trust that people can do their jobs better at home. Think carefully while accepting a job from here, they don't care about you.
