Beware of false friends

Pros

They have fun. There is a party culture. The company was started by former spring breaker tour operators so they maintain a bit of a frat bro office culture. The leadership are all old friends and the only way to truly break into senior leadership is to buy your way in or already be their old buddy (or both). You will become friendly with everyone there but they won't think twice about stabbing you in the back if it is monetarily expedient.

Cons

Laughably low pay. Frequent layoffs. Shifty commision draw pay practices- its common employees "owe" company money when they are getting paid at 25-30k bi weekly. They hire seasonally and let go people regularly. They share resources with a mexican travel and education travel companies. The educational travel president has a screw loose and has been known to throw phones across the office in rage.

Tenon Tours Response

While I respect the opinions of all past and current employees, I believe it is important to note that I do not believe this was written by an employee of Tenon Tours, but rather one of its former sister companies in a shared office. Tenon Tours is proud to say that 17 of the current 19 employees are female, the average length of employment is 4 years, and the average pay is > $40,000/year. We are in our 11th year of business, with our headquarters now located in Lewes, DE, and continue to grow as a company with a great team in a great environment.

- Stressful especially during high travel seasons - lots of changes since I have come on but, I will say that happens as companies grow - Although I have these 2 cons, the company is amazingly supportive. So it makes these items easier.
