Hi,
First and foremost, I want to thank you for writing up a review on your interview experience with us, it means a lot. While I don't know who you are or your exact experience with us, allow me to say that this feedback is something that we take seriously.
To that end, I would like to address a few points you made in your review that might clear things up. Yes...we have a top down interview process here. It has worked for over 8 years and despite us being at 87 people, I (Andrew Kordek) still do all of the initial interviews. I think your comment on the one negative review being more accurate is simply not true and is a big assumption on your part. That review was done by an employee and not an interviewee, so it would really hard to make that assumption since we were not able to hire you. As far as the other "bubbly" reviews, I can tell you that those are unsolicited.
Our average employee's workload varies from week to week, but I can guarantee you that no one works 60 hrs as an average and we have the data via our project management system to prove it. I am sorry to tell you that your supposition of the hours is simply untrue.
While I would love to address your salary comment, I simply cannot but can assure you once again that what you wrote is simply not the case. Again...having access to the financials, I have the data to prove it.
That said...your experience with us and your comment around our "courtesy policy" hits hard and it will be something that I will investigate. We want everyone who applies to Trendline to have an optimal experience and it sounds like that didn't happen. For that, I am sorry and hope that my response to your experience closes the loop on your experience with us. If it didn't, I am always willing to discuss further if you want to email me. If you saved your correspondence with us please reach out to me directly. If not, you can reach me at engage@trendlineinteractive.com
