Tinuiti has lost its way

Pros

Tinuiti was once a stand-out agency with industry-leading benefits and a people-first culture. A few things Tinuiti still has going for it: 1. Tinuiti is full of talented, committed people. Some of the kindest, low-ego people I've ever worked with are here. 2. The executive team is super approachable, transparent about company financials, has a clear vision for the future, and holds a strong commitment to DE&I. That's more than a lot of agencies can say. 3. It's nice to work for a company where remote work will be the standard going forward. Ultimately, Tinuiti is better than a lot of jobs out there. It's a decent enough place to start a career in digital marketing if you're okay with low pay, you're fine with working weekends and holidays, and you don't have a family to take care of. If you're right out of college, this is a good place to build your portfolio then move on to something more mature.

Cons

...but if you're reading this, you're probably looking at other big agencies and leading tech companies that all offer exactly what Tinuiti does, but better. Tinuiti no longer offers employees the benefits, compensation, or culture they need to stay. This is leading to massive churn on both the people and client side. A lot of the things that made Tinuiti great are either: a) standard in our industry post-COVID (remote work, flexible hours) b) gone completely (internet reimbursement, employer-paid healthcare plans) c) or never existed in the first place (unlimited PTO, mandatory mental health days, Summer Fridays) The people-first culture that Tinuiti preaches is all talk and no action. I can't speak for all teams, but my experience on the creative team was one of the worst of my entire career. The gaslighting that happens from management is insulting and angering. At multiple points during the pandemic when my team brought forward issues of unsustainable hours that were affecting the quality of work for our clients, we were told by our manager that we were "Lucky to even have a job right now." Ultimately, yes—Tinuiti is a business and needs to do what's necessary to stay afloat. But at the expense of your people?

Pros

You're able to work from home but expect 10 hour days

Cons

The exec team has shown time and time again that they do not listen to feedback. We switched to a terrible health insurance provider last year and after more than half the company complained about it, nothing has been done. They also laid off a lot of workers, cut huge portions off our commissions, and are pushing out a lot of the people who made Tinuiti great 10+ years ago

Pros

Used to pay well. Very smart coworkers. Fully Remote.

Cons

Recent layoffs. The company is making drastic changes to squeeze more profitability out of the employees. Commission was cut from a 15% model to one based on a 3% model that is based on the performance of an entire team spanning multiple departments. Pay is being cut by tens of thousands for most employees. People managers are having to manage accounts again. Base pay raises not matching inflation & no bonuses. It is quite frightening to see how fast this company has changed recently. I would avoid working here if possible. They have restructured the company in a way that makes moving up nearly impossible. These large changes are taking place in ~Q2 2024. This is a very different place than what the old reviews will reference.
