Pros

General staff are great to work with. People enjoy what they are working on, and passionate about what they do. Interesting and varied clients. Opportunity to learn a lot.

Cons

There is a cliquey atmosphere that comes from the top down. It's hard to question management, and makes for an uncomfortable environment. The CEO can be extremely unprofessional and can be a bully at times. Randomly breaking property is a quirk of his. The expectation to do long hours is ridiculous, with late night and weekend working sessions diary entries. Tendency for away trips to be excessively juvenile and loutish, with culture too alcohol focused. Lack of basic benefits such as health and dental care.

Pros

I joined the Company last year and felt part of the team very quickly. Everyone is so passionate and cares about the contribution they make. Those that don't very quickly realise this isn't the right environment for them. The pace at Think is fast and being small, we have to be nimble and often change direction to suit our clients. This obviously has a knock on impact on the teams but we manage this very carefully and ensure we all know what our roles are. Having just had our Christmas party, you realise what a tight team and family there is at Think. The company take creating a great culture seriously and both offices get together at least once every quarter; away weekends, socials, lunches together, creative breakfast, dragon’s den, rocket fuel. One of the core values that we created last year was “together as one” and although having bi-location offices can be a challenge, we are constantly working to make sure we work as one team. It pays off. I thoroughly enjoy working here and it’s important that everyone feels valued, listened to and appreciated. Over the past two years, Think has made remarkable improvements in every touch point to address these specific goals and the actions are continuous and ongoing.

Cons

It can be difficult to attract the right talent that share our values and passion.
