Working at The Tapping Solution in Newtown, CT: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Newtown, CT Area

"I joined this team with great passion and enthusiasm and was let go within seven days, just one day after the head of marketing admitted to me that quote "You've jumped into the action when there is a LOT going on so not only did you have to jump right into the thick of it all in week 1, but I was also distracted by a number of things, making it tough to onboard you and support you." You can imagine my shock. I was absolutely in the midst of the learning process when it came to management's preferred communication and copywriting styles. This process most certainly included mistakes, but I owned those mistakes immediately and was actively learning from them. They were obvious new-person errors that were easy to remedy and I was taking responsibility for doing that in real time. It's fair for leadership to want autonomous employees who can work independently and not be coddled, without a shadow of a doubt. It is *not* however, reasonable just, logical, or productive, to expect perfection in the midst of a high pressure environment within just a few days. Taking on ownership of a company's voice is an honor and a critical responsibility. You need time and in-depth communication with leadership to adequately develop that voice in a way that rings true to their intentions, values, and goals. I was not given time to even ask the questions I needed to ask. I was not given the time to execute other marketing skills I excel at outside of this one process-- most of the skills I was seemingly hired for. Before being hired, I was asked to submit a writing portfolio. I was told as part of the hiring process the team very much liked my writing. Once I was on the team, my direct report, who had requested that portfolio in the first place, told me he hadn't even read it, but had outsourced it to another member of the team."
