Insights on Tombras? I recently left an agency that wasn’t great (dysfunctional all around, bad leadership, not really any chances for creating good or even decent work) and want to know if Tombras is like that or if it’s the opposite.

From the area. Everyone I’ve heard from who has worked there hasn’t liked it besides as a way to get their foot in the door. Specifically creatives. Also last I checked they have unlimited PTO, which is always a red flag. But I haven’t worked there myself.

like

Yeah unlimited PTO is the worst. They do it 1. to guilt you into not taking vacay and 2. so they don’t have to pay your unused days when you leave…pure scam

Are you interviewing there or just curious?

Just curious. Don’t want to waste my time (or theirs) if it isn’t what I’m looking for

Would love to eavesdrop on this conversation as I'm currently interviewing with them

What location are you interviewing at?
