Pros

Everyone at Tend's Hubs and Studios will tell you the people are what make working here so amazing. Every team has smart, passionate, and capable people and everyone is friendly which is rare in my experience. I also like that covid safety has seemed a top priority for management throughout the pandemic.

Cons

- Exec team could do more to diversify corporate leadership. - Accountability and representation for BIPOC, LGBTQ, and the differently-abled don't seem to be a priority. Similarly, accommodations for gender identities outside the binary and for differently-abled folks seem minimal, if they exist at all (both for employees and members). - Benefits seem so-so compared to similar start-ups.
