Pros

As an EA that worked there for 8 months to the Chairman of the compnay as well as its 5 senior level execs, Teneo is in a great location, has a great salary, a great office space, and great top tier clients of various industries you will be exposed to and collaborate with. It is a fast paced environment and aligned with the current events of finance industry.

Cons

The downside to this job is that it finance so the demand can be relentless and the execs lack sympathy in work life balance as it affects there bottom line. While it is a young thriving business filled with so many intellectual and savvy minds there is a disconnect in refueling their employee. There is no room for weak link, there is an overwhelming surge of a non-stop go, go, pattern even if its is not conducive to your environment and health. If you do not have a type A personality that borders on OCD attitude that extends over every detail you will falter in this environment and company. You must know what you want to do and love it. Honestly, if you like relentless success by any means necessary and and want to make a great salary, this if for you. But it will talk all of you time and energy until you are burnt out. This job literally caused me an anxiety attack during my performance review and a miscarriage. So beware of the high salaries and clients and the cost may be your family, your health, and your peace of mind.

Not what I expected

Pros

Some good people that tried to put a positive on the experience. Office is very nice

Cons

Many disappointments are about the office attitude which is focussed on enriching the guys at the top and not much else. If you look good and have achievements from before joining Teneo you will climb. If you are quiet and work with your head down you will not be recognised. Some teams are secondary to the main comms business and there's some uncertainty on what cvc have planned to get their money. Also find it suspicious that all the good reviews are in summer 2019 I'm sure they'll find a way to bury mine

Pros

1. The company hires highly qualified senior talent. 2. Teneo pays for dinner when you stay in the office after 8PM (which comes in handy when you work 16 hour days. 3. Free bottled water and sodas

Cons

1. If you're part of the junior staff, you will work 60+ hour weeks. It's the norm in there. 2. People usually work at Teneo for a few years and then realize that their work is not compensated enough, and decide to leave. 3. When male senior staff hit on younger girls in the office, it's considered "normal" and the ladies have to suck it up in order to keep their jobs. 4. HR is a joke. I saw at least 4 people get fired in a matter of a couple of months because their bosses were not clear on expectations to them. 5. Management is white-male dominated, there's no diversity and no respect for it either.
