Pros

The hiring managers at Trendline have an uncanny ability to hire the best-of-the-best people, both skill-wise and personality-wise. Showing up to work is never a chore because I get to work with the most thoughtful, kind, fun and quirky people. The culture that's been created is irreplicable, and I am excited to see it evolve as we grow as a company. I had a personal situation come up unexpectedly in May, and I was able to move back to my hometown and work remotely for a few months while I sorted things out, thanks to senior management. Everyone at Trendline was supportive and was only concerned about my wellbeing. When I returned to the office, they greeted me with open arms as if nothing had changed. It's a really comforting feeling to know that Trendline met me where I was at and allowed me to do what I needed to get back on my feet. My role specifically is a very collaborative role. Getting to work with so many different people within the company is a big bonus for me and makes me excited about the work I do. It's work that a lot of people have a hand in and are proud of, which only reinforces the idea that Trendline hires the best people. I also appreciate the transparency of the senior leadership team, especially our CEO. He's candid about where the company is going and openly shares goals and benchmarks with the entire team each month.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Wow...thanks for your review of Trendline!! One of the things that I believe is missing in today's working environment is the ability to treat people like adults rather than just employees. I think it goes without saying, but we are truly committed to everyones well-being around here and I am glad that we were able to accommodate you in your time of need. Your positive review means a lot to Morgan and I. We truly want to be a place where everyone has a voice and feels like they valued. Thank you again for taking the time to write up a review.

Pros

Lots of room to create your own structure and process. Respectful that employees are people. The organization actually cares about DEI, operationally, not just as lip service. Tons of opportunity for learning. Thoughtful CEO, who communicates clearly.

Cons

It is a difficult industry space for an org to enter, and I don't know anyone who does full service consultancy + agency particularly well. If you're gritty and you like creating your own structure, this can also be a pro.

Pros

You will be a fool to seek any pros here. It's not a decent workplace for people who want clear boundaries and hope to enjoy some work-life balance. These awful people will never respect the lines you draw.

Cons

The work expectations were ridiculously high. Employees were expected to be available 24/7, work on multiple projects, and meet client expectations while balancing poorly assigned deadlines. It was a struggle to show up every day when you knew they expected too much from you. It was exhausting to try to reason with the arrogant leadership that did nothing but pile horrible expectations. They also didn't give me enough room to grow. My learning stopped, and I was doing boring work for months. There was no career growth, either. Overall, it was a horribly frustrating experience, and I escaped before I could be trapped here for long.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that you felt overwhelmed and unsupported during your time with us. Your feedback about workload expectations, work-life balance, and development opportunities is taken seriously. We recognize that unrealistic deadlines and unclear boundaries can lead to burnout, and this is not the environment we want to create. Our new leadership is working to actively address these issues. Again, thank you for the feedback.
