Pros

- Colleagues are visionary and mission-focused - Flexible scheduling is celebrated - Pay is competitive - WFH stipend

Cons

- Mass spontaneous layoffs with no notice, no derogatory performance remarks, and no time to find a job somewhere else - Standard layoff procedure is via email while simultaneously locking the employee's system so they cannot get closure with their colleagues. When TMP is riding the highs of an economic boom they are celebratory, share success with gifts and lunches, and hire the best talent. It is truly the best place to work. BUT, that bears no weight to how they treated employees that were deemed unnecessary in an economic downturn. I was one of 15% of employees that were simply emailed a note that read "...today is your last day...we will have a conversation with you at some point..." before my system was abruptly shut down and I lost all access. A standard severance meeting was held, and that was it. One day I was happily employed and doing my job, and then next I was staring at a computer I could no longer log in to. For a company that promises to keep moms in the workforce, they sure have a funny way of showing it. The only reason this didn't get one star is because I still believe in the mission, and believe the executive team means well even though the execution of this was abhorrent.
