Pros

You can get exposure to lots of Fortune 500 companies.

Cons

TGG claims to be entrepreneurial, but the Lead Team is more bureaucratic, insular, and resistant to change than anything I experienced in the corporate world. I watched them make bizarre and hurtful decisions time and time again that prioritized looking good or keeping power with the LT over the health of the company and its employees.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. Since this review, many aspects of The Garage Group have changed, including ownership and the adoption of an evolutionary new way of leading which has since empowered the whole team to have a voice into the decisions made for immediate impact and for our future. The new leadership mix is focused on creating inclusive experiments that are safe to try and we're thrilled this is thriving in our improved, trusted culture.

Thank you for the review! The redundancy in the projects is real, so we're excited about a new vision for the work we're doing and the way we're organizing to provide a variety of experiences across our team and to drive even greater impact to our clients.

Pros

Passionate and Collaborative Team: You work with colleagues with an undying passion for their work and a dedication to collaboration, making it a positive and motivating work environment. Innovative and Impactful Projects: I have been involved in some innovative and impactful projects, which can be intellectually stimulating and personally fulfilling as I have left a mark on some challenging and meaningful work that I can be genuinely proud of. Learning Opportunities: The collaborative problem-solving approach allows employees to learn from experienced and knowledgeable colleagues, contributing to personal and professional growth. I've seen myself grow immensely in my first year and have even helped construct me own development plan within the company that fulfills my motivations. Camaraderie and Support: There is an emphasis on camaraderie and support among colleagues which creates a positive workplace culture that promotes creativity, growth, and a strong sense of belonging. Our leadership has taken steps to develop further an environment that fosters candidness and connection across all positions. Recognition of Individual Strengths: The company values each individual's unique strengths, making each employee shine and contribute in ways that align with their skills. We use Cloverleaf to understand better how one's strengths can appear within our collective. Opportunities for Challenges: There are ongoing opportunities to learn and overcome new obstacles.

Cons

Fast-Paced Environment: This is not a con for me as I enjoy the ever-changing nature of our work, but this is something to highlight. We work fast and with tight turnarounds at times. We use the term "hustle," but we work to provide the best outputs for our clients within a given time frame. Sometimes this means work may bleed over the traditional 9-5 hours, but we are encouraged to balance our hours to maintain a work-life balance. This company would not be for you if you are used to doing the same things daily and enjoy a structured routine. If you like to manage your own schedule and have various tasks throughout the week, consider looking into The Garage Group.

Reading your review has been such a treat! Thank you for taking the time and energy to put your personalized experience out there and for us to absorb. We especially love the call-out for how we operate on the day-to-day and the insight that can give future people that join our team. We couldn't continue to make such progress without people like you in our organization.
