Outstanding workplace culture with strong team collaboration - Originator tem Employee Review

The team is genuinely brilliant. Everyone actually gets on and pulls in the same direction. The role comes with a lot of autonomy which I really value; you're trusted to get on with things and make real decisions rather than being micromanaged at every turn. Pay is excellent for the industry and there's real scope to grow, take on more responsibility and have genuine impact on the business. You can see the results of your work, which makes a big difference day to day.

Be prepared for the workload — this role demands a lot, and you need to be comfortable with that going in. It's not for people looking for an easy ride. The pace can be intense, but for the right person it's energising rather than draining.

I joined tem quite recently and had a great onboarding experience - one of the best I've had so far. The team is very friendly and welcoming. I felt comfortable from day one. The pace is intense, which is expected for a startup at this stage (plus we're building something unheard of and need to move fast). It’s the kind of intensity I personally enjoy. Criticism is encouraged, as long as it's delivered constructively. Initiative is more than welcome. There's plenty of things to build and improve, which I love.

A startup environment isn’t for everyone. If you prefer a lot of structure, long-term planning and predictability, the day to day here might feel a bit too dynamic. There’s a strong bias for action, which is great, but sometimes leads to moving forward before fully thinking things through. Occasionally it’s worth pausing before you press play.
