Pros
This review is my opinion based on my experience as an employee of tbk. I wish I had known about tbk's glassdoor when I interviewed. It is true that unhappy people are louder than happy, but a quick search on identifying a toxic workplace will lead you to all the major warning signs at tbk. Even though I would not recommend tbk to my peers, there are some positive facets to the business as well. - High profile clients and variety of work - One thing you really do have to give to tbk is that they hire quality individuals - Refresh Fridays - half days in the summer - Benefit plan is quite good and offers decent coverage - Blue mountain trips at Christmas - Social Committee Events
Cons
- Public criticisms of employees on company communications channels - Senior leadership is often unavailable, very little flexibility for staff to meet with them. - One on ones/company retrospective, feedback is given regularly but only acted on items that aren’t directed towards management/leadership - Leadership is by far the largest bottleneck in the company, leaving teams waiting sometimes weeks for feedback to progress projects - Micromanagement is real, timing to the minute for your day, teams often spend their full 9 hours working non stop without lunch or breaks to hit the timed full day. - Senior leadership refuses to follow standard company procedure and workflow. - You only have (3) personal/sick days a year, so be sure to bank those. - Projects are underquoted for time and teams are rushed in their work to make budget deadlines that are unrealistic. - Onboarding process needs to be developed further.
