Pros

My co-workers are very friendly and supportiv

Cons

Tribu has a poor work environment that’s not conducive to learning and career growth. The workplace is stressful and hectic, and employees have to answer to the extremely unpleasant and hostile leaders of this company. I don’t think anyone would feel even remotely motivated when they have these kinds of leaders.

Pros

Great place if you like making up your own rules because nobody else seems to have bothered to write them down.

Cons

The core issue is that there's no actual operational infrastructure — no documented processes, no workflows, nothing that exists beyond what's in people's heads, which means you're constantly trying to figure out what you're supposed to be doing and who actually owns what. Meetings happen constantly about problems that literally wouldn't exist if there was even basic structure in place, but nobody seems to notice or care that we're just repeating the same issues. Everything runs on assumption and personal knowledge instead of actual systems, so when someone new shows up or someone leaves, you lose that knowledge completely and start all over. The worst part is how normalized it's become — like this level of disorganization is just the cost of doing business, which honestly says something about the priorities here. It's not flexibility, it's negligence. And after a while you just stop fighting it, which is probably the saddest part.

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. As a growing company, we recognize there will always be areas where we can improve, and strengthening our processes has been a major focus over the past year. We understand that maintaining clear processes, documentation, and structure is necessary for both employee success and long-term growth. As a result, we have continued to invest in improving documentation, refining workflows, clarifying roles and responsibilities, and creating greater consistency across Tribu. We have also created opportunities for employees to provide direct input through initiatives such as Tiger Teams, where team members collaborate with leadership to identify challenges and recommend improvements. This approach has strengthened both our team and our culture by giving employees a voice in shaping how we work. While there is always room for improvement, we are proud of the progress we've made and remain committed to continuously improving our employee experience. We appreciate the contributions you made during your time at Tribu and wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Pros

You will learn a lot very quickly

Cons

Read every single review below. They are 100% on point on what you will experience here. Free overtime PTO will be denied You will be threatened And as soon as they dont like you they will send a quick email giving them legal reasons to fire you and then they will do just that a couple days later.

Thanks for sharing your feedback. Tribu is a fast-paced environment where people tend to learn a lot very quickly if they’re open to it. We’re glad to hear you felt like you gained that during your time here. At the same time, it’s tough to read the rest of your experience, especially given how serious some of those concerns are. What you described isn’t the experience we strive to create, and we take that seriously. We encourage people to take their PTO and fully disconnect when they’re off. When someone requests time off, especially for more than a day, we work with them and their manager ahead of time to make sure responsibilities are covered so they can step away. If anything comes up while they’re out, there’s always someone available to step in and support. We approach decisions thoughtfully, even when those decisions are difficult. Our goal is always to protect the tribe, the work, and the overall culture. We’ve worked hard to make changes to how we operate. Especially around communication, expectations, and manager support, and we’re continuing to build on that. We know not everyone will have the same experience, but feedback like this is something we take seriously as we continue to improve. We truly wish you the best moving forward.
