Pros

Some of your co workers are nice people

Cons

Everything is already been said in the past reviews. They will want to pay you nothing for your work, expect that you work for free in their events, they will not pay you any extra hours, upper management will make you feel like you are nothing by saying so and by not taking your input as valid EVERYTHING has to be approved by the president, even if he doesn't have idea on what he's deciding . I agree with what somebody already said, take the job if you have no other option. but leave sooner than later. that 5 star review must be someone doing damage control no doubt.

TLN Media Group Response

We appreciate these reviews because they help us identify areas of improvement. While we can't comment on specific claims, we can report that we have tools to track hours worked--including hours worked at events. Our leadership is engaged and supports teams in order to help everyone succeed. Since this review was made, work and approval flows have been streamlined and company-wide OKRs established. Employees are encouraged to be entrepreneurial and take ownership of projects while we provide them with the support and tools to enable success. TMG has also become an independent media company and moved to a beautiful new head office since this review was written.

Pros

Great at getting responses back from emails within 10 days

Cons

Poor communication, did not provide a contract (said they would), keep giving work out with tight deadlines but do not respond effectively making it hard to do job. CONTRACTORS/ CONSULTANTS - get or provide a signed contract before you do anything - do not trust these people. They will pass on unpaid work as "internship".

TLN Media Group Response

We appreciate your feedback and review. We read these and, while we don't always respond, we do learn a lot from these and it helps us improve. We're sorry that you didn't have a good experience at TLN Media Group (TMG). We work with a number of contractors and consultants who continue to work with us on projects over the course of many years. We really strive to make everyone feel included as part of the TMG family, whether they are an employee, contractor, consultant, or freelancer. We will look into our review and approval workflows to correct any issues that create bottlenecks on priority work.

Pros

- Incredible coworkers. Truly the best part of the job. It genuinely feels like a family. - Great place to start a media career and gain exposure to different areas of the industry. - Opportunity to explore multiple roles and learn various sides of production and media operations.

Cons

- Upper management lacks transparency and does not consistently support staff when new challenges come up. - Ideas are not always credited, and accountability can feel one-sided. - Recent years have brought stricter policies around workplace freedoms (e.g., breaks), which had a huge impact in employees morale. - Employees are often encouraged to take on multiple roles, which can feel more like filling staffing gaps than professional development. - Limited long-term growth opportunities. - New ideas are often met with resistance rather than encouragement. - "That's the way it's always been done" mentality.
