Prospective Employees - This is NOT the Company You're Looking For!
Pros
The company has a great idea and product offering, which can deliver significant value for small business owners in the self-storage space. Hopefully they can make positive changes so they will survive to continue doing so.
Cons
The moral compass of this organization does not align with my own. Tenant Inc. has recently earned some well-deserved negative reviews on this site for the working environment and the behavior of certain leadership team members. In response, the company has asked some employees to leave positive reviews here. This is why you will see positive reviews within a few days of a negative review. Is this the type of company that you want to work for? Me neither. If this isn’t enough to dissuade you, then the working environment should. The company has invested heavily in sales and marketing without similar investments in operations. The operations teams are spread unreasonably thin, and the turnover rate is alarming. This is the first company I have ever worked for where I have witnessed multiple people walk off the job and quit without giving any notice. We all have obligations in life, so imagine how far a person must be pushed to abandon their income. The tension in the office is palpable, and many team members are experiencing negative health effects and strained family relationships due to the long hours, unreasonable expectations, and the harsh environment. It’s not uncommon to see people crying or even vomiting in the restroom. Yes, it’s really that bad. Young tech companies tend to attract bright and intrinsically motivated people. We blame ourselves for the company’s failures to properly manage the business, and we take it personally. Certain leadership team members prey on this to push people beyond their limits, and when they succumb to the stress and leave, the company hires another and it’s “lather, rinse, repeat.” In this company, you are not a person, you are a commodity to be used, burnt out, discarded, and then replaced. Do yourself and your family a favor, and do not consider employment in an environment like this. This company is suffering from the poor decisions of a few egotistical professional nomads who bounce from company to company and stay just long enough to do harm before seeking their next failure. The environment will not improve until this changes, but I do not intend to stick around and see this through because life it too short to live like this.
