Pros

Teneo is a great place to dip your toes across many industries and fields. Some of the big pros of interning with Teneo include: 1. Being quickly entrusted with similar responsibilities as a entry level associate 2. Face time with MDs who were very willing to offer advice and talk about their own career paths 3. Very overall fun and relaxed office environment with a lot of friendly people

Cons

1. Some interactions with people who assigned you tasks felt very transnational and it can be frustrating to not understand your contributions within a bigger picture

A Great Place To Build A Career

Pros

Despite some of the negative reviews below, I have found Teneo to be an incredible place to work. As a relatively junior employee you have the opportunity to interact regularly with senior management and to work on a daily basis with very talented senior professionals that are dedicated to making sure you develop the skills you need to have a long and successful career. I feel that I have learned a great deal during my time with the firm and had the opportunity to work with some of the biggest companies in the world that make up the Teneo client base. The company has a strong emerging culture (only 5 years old) and there are a variety of employee engagement and philanthropic activities that take place on a regular basis. Also, despite what might be written in some comments below the firm is increasingly diverse (I believe over 50% of the company are women) and there are many senior women who play critical roles across the firm. Overall, Teneo is great company to work for and I would highly recommend the firm to people interested in a challenging career.

Cons

While not necessarily a con, people need to understand that in order be successful at Teneo you are going to have to work hard and you will get out of the experience what you put into it. The founders of Teneo are building a new breed of advisory firm and it is something people should be excited to be a part of.

Pros

You will never think inside the box again. The account teams are cross disciplinary (market analysts, business consultants, accountants, journalists, political advisers etc.) and the work is incredibly diverse. You are never just a cog in a wheel. What's pretty unique is that the owners really are the account leaders in reality, and not like my last consulting job where the client got to see my boss once a year. This place really pushed me to realize my potential.

Cons

Not a place where mediocrity can hide for long. You always have to have your cellphone on because the clients expect 24/7 access.
