TPG Reviews

Pros

- Daily catered lunch - Commuter Stipend / Valet Parking Garage - Beautiful San Francisco Office - EA work no matter where you go is time-consuming and sometimes difficult, but here it is manageable, and the people you work for make it worth it - Genuinely good people

Cons

Not much I can think of, except there are no promotions or levels to an EA at this company, but still is the best job I've ever had

Pros

Work from home and turn your home into a stressful bliss

Cons

Lance Turner the owner is a huge egocentric personality and treats you like a child and starts his sentences like this “guys Im not saying this with my ego”(then proceeds to mansplain using his ego to make you feel like you’re not working to his expectations. Soo nice in the beginning but the moment he becomes your boss his true personality shines through. I wouldnt let him move in next door to me for fear that his ego will perpetuate through the walls and happen to leak inside my air vents. Also all the management suck up to him so hard. It’s disgusting how they talk behind the owners back but will never step up in meetings it’s like everyone knows they are working for an tyrant but no one steps up to this guy. Lance (owner of TPG) quite literally created a spreadsheet doc and sent it out to all the new hire reps to have them fill out there data performed for the week. Within 2 min after sending he sent a follow up email chastising everyone for not filling out this spreadsheet In the two minutes that he sent it out. Also be prepared for micromanagement wazoo and if Lance doesn’t like your numbers he will expect them to change in the next hour and if you don’t you will get a discussion where he threatens you with “I had higher expectations for you and I really would hate to be wrong am i going to be wrong?” This guy thinks he’s a god and even has “golden glove champion 2013” listed in his Linkedin profile right under his passed bar exam from SCU. He looks like the guy from new girl. Except our version has a god complex. STAY FAR AWAY

Pros

They have continued with a hybrid work schedule.

Cons

Look elsewhere if you want to be treated like an intelligent being. Prepare to be mansplained frequently by “professionals” that think they know it all, including how your admin work should be done.

Pros

Good company to work for

Cons

Micromanaging the employees was unprofessional

Pros

- Good cash bonus at year-end - Great top-level firm culture (mostly driven by the 'front office' and exec team) - Very academic/scholarly (again, mostly driven by the 'front office' & exec team) - Very informative and educational monthly learning series - Lots of holidays and 2-3 weeks given off around Christmas

Cons

- Very inconsistent culture from 'front-office' to 'back-office' - many sub-cultures - Back office doesn't always walk the walk when it comes to living firm values - Had a negative experience of having an overly aggressive & arrogant Mgr. - Extremely long hours and unreasonable expectations - Mgr played favorites which led to inconsistent critical feedback & performance review ratings across team members - Frequent yelling, cursing, and verbally abusive feedback from Mgr (who, by the way, was promoted) - Mgr took very little responsibility when it came to training and development and demonstrated weak leadership - Treated as an outsider for not being into and keeping up with professional sports
