Bellissima Esperienza - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso TED Conferences

Great company culture, people are really kind and want to work hard

Non-profit so the ceiling for salary is on the lower side relative to the industry

Most of the people are great and genuinely care about the mission. They are world class and incredibly high-functioning. It is amazing to be part of such a collaborative, creative team.

There was always this never spoken about but glaring expectation to work long-hours and overtime with a huge hustle culture. Leadership would email evenings and weekends and would expect the same of you. Raises and promotions are very hard to receive. Although unlimited PTO sounded cool, there are so many rules around what you can and cannot do with your time. Its no secret TED is struggling financially and all frill and fun was cut a long time ago. They went from 1 toxic CEO to another toxic CEO. So many cringey, uncomfortable internal All-Hands moments with very sensitive topics handled poorly. Staff are constantly in fear of losing their job. The culture is dead and toxic. Very hard to advance.
