Pros

Phenomenal team with very smart people. Most of the people are quite genuine. Cool and interesting clients and work. I'm always being challenged to grow.

Cons

Management can be far too involved in the day to day. The company prides itself on flexibility yet you're watched to ensure you are in the office from 9-5. Trineo lacks consistency of policy across employees; a benefit for one should apply to all. People are driven hard and expected to provide 100%, for example, if you need to leave the office early for an appointment or to take care of a personal matter, you're expected to "make up the time" later. You're given 3 weeks of PTO but need to ask permission to take it and can be asked to change your time away. Biggest con is that management comes in and out of the day-to-day way too often. It can derail the project and also sends the message to the team that they're not capable.

Pros

Smart, kind people who value high quality delivery and healthy work-life balance. Strong thought leadership with an emphasis on people/culture.

Cons

Like all companies, Trineo has unique challenges and opportunities for improvement. However, Trineo has a strong collective aptitude for identifying and considering areas that can be improved.

Pros

Focus on people over profits and products, balanced, transparent culture, extremely smart people, in-depth and long-term relationships with customers, travel opportunities to offices in Australia and NZ (headquarters), great Boulder, CO office and energy, cultural willingness to learn and evolve, core values are real. Generous with celebrating as a team with trips and other team building. Privately held with no outside investment so we grow at a sustainable pace.

Cons

It's occasionally difficult collaborating with teams across very large time zone differences. While being self-funded has big benefits when it comes to decision making and sustainable growth, that means we have to be more thoughtful with our budget for marketing, and we don't throw big bucks at experiments. Some might see that as a con.
