Fast-paced recruiting experience marred by high turnover and pressure

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Offers fast-paced experience in high-volume recruiting and a crash course in managing heavy workloads.

Cons

• High Turnover & Restructuring: Frequent layoffs mean remaining staff must absorb the extra workload. In 3 years, I experienced 5 different supervisors, 4 regional managers, and 3 upper managers, creating a lot of instability. • Heavy Workload vs. Compensation: Recruiters are expected to hire 60+ people per month while navigating constant technical issues and updating over 10 different spreadsheets. However, compensation falls short with a $0.25 annual increase and no bonus structure for frontline recruiters. • Workplace Pressure: The high volume and tight targets leave little time for breaks, with many employees eating at their desks to keep up. Additionally, there are frequent payroll issues with frontline staff.

Toxic management and lack of organization ruin the job

Business Outlook

Pros

Only pros are insurance and having a job.

Cons

Everything . Management is terrible , there is no organization. They harass you over cleaning and everything but never get rewarded for good work . They complain and are lazy. If you report anything to hr they will fire you after investigation. I was fired because I had an emergency situation with my mom and couldn’t make it in. They mocked my situation and fired me. The supervisors are unprofessional and they don’t know what they’re doing on a day to day basis . Every employee I’ve met has complained about the job .
