Pros

They let you work really hard, as many hours as you want.

Cons

Long hours. Excessive meetings. Weird culture that treats employees more like kids constantly seeking "feedback" on other employees. When you consistently basically ask your employees to complain about each other. They will. I was the lead on winning a big client. Worked long nights and weekends and after sharing the pitch presentation, was told it was "unimpressive" and was given a low employee review because it happened to come right after the presentation. Good enough to bring in one the team's biggest clients. Not good enough for my boss.

Toxic & Disappointing Experience Overall

Pros

WFH 100%, unlimited PTO and solid parental leave benefits

Cons

Tinuiti has so much room for growth and development - which can be a pro and a con. I wasn't there long, but from month 2 I immediately saw how over worked, burnt out and toxic this place was. The way they allocate people (some are across 2-3 MASSIVE accounts) is ridiculous if you want to actually develop good, strategic work and leadership has absolutely zero empathy for you if you're feeling overwhelmed or burnt out. Tinuiti fully puts the business over people and it shows every single day in the way they "lead" and pretend to care about their employees. You are not set up for success here and the lack of resources and day to day strategic knowledge is on full display as you navigate client work and internal processes (which there are 9000 things to do a day). It's very much an "I" mentality here with zero team morale or collaboration which is why if you aren't succeeding in their mind with the 14 hour days you need to work in order to get non-strategic work done, you'll be pushed out immediately.

Pros

Tinuiti's best PRO is the one thing they do best, advertise. When you are inquiring about working there, they do a good job of boasting about their culture and how many people they hire, how much employees love it there, how many awards they've won. It's all just another campaign of theirs. It's false advertising. Their "company culture" left the company when their original founder left. Since then they've been clinging to a dying past which is increasingly ironic every day. They're hiring so many people, because they're losing so many people. You'd be better off at one of their competitors that haven't lost touch with what it means to care about your employees or your culture.

Cons

Everything. "Growing pains" is a sorry excuse for why it's terrible to work at Tinuiti. Sure, you can say that "change is inevitable" when a company grows. Of course though, we all know that when you sell your company, your goal becomes money, not people, not culture. It's hard for Tinuiti to fake their interest in people and culture. This becomes more and more obvious on a daily basis. It's almost comical how many people are suffering and how little is done. The CEO is tone deaf because he's focused on growing his company. A lot of the higher ups there care more about making the most money off of their investment in Tinuiti and could not possibly care less about the people there. It's almost like a running joke within the company. It becomes entertaining to see how many start and quit within their first year. Every department feeling the same thing. Let's not forget here folks, their whole gig is to drive people to a product. Driving people to their own business is their biggest campaign to date. When they win "best place to work" that's the result of a campaign. When they win awards, it's because of campaigning. These aren't genuine facts that are based on the reality of the situation, it's based on the simple idea that those who work there and like it - vote - and tell their friends to vote. The majority that work there and hate it - say nothing - because they don't want to lose their job. So the results are skewed. Just remember: The Fyre Music Festival was advertised like it was going to be the greatest music festival since Woodstock and it turned out to be a complete disaster. The reality was absolutely nothing like advertised.
