We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the culture in the Washington DC location. That particular office has a great track record for a winning culture. With that being said, you did not feel that way and we would like to hear more. If you would like to email us at peoplefirst@addisongroup.com we would love to discuss your situation in the hopes of improving the culture so that all staff feels supported and part of a thriving team.

"People Last" is more like it

Pros

"Manager" was very hands off and left the team alone. Did not micro-manage! He/she really didn't know what was going on most of the time. Left to do the job. If you are young, caucasian and a recent college grad, who likes to drink, this is the place for you. Some remote work, but they need to get with the times. Remote work is no longer a luxury. It's a good place to learn the Staffing industry and then bounce out, when you know what you are doing. Otherwise, you won't grow and you will lose braincells working here. A lot of free booze, if that's your thing.

Cons

Rarely, in the branches, do they hire someone over the age of 30. They believe that experienced candidates, "come with bad habits." So you work with mostly 22-30 year olds, which isn't a bad thing, but diversity in age, race and background is seriously lacking and it's intentional. Meetings lack strategy, agenda and purpose. Managers are pretty free to do whatever they like, without consequence. Rarely do they stick to their strategy/processes consistently. You never know what the lastest and greatest "rules" are, because the communication is so poor from the top, down. Teammates are not trustworthy and don't really care about eachother. A ton of gossip and often Managers are spearheading it. Many, many people are unhappy, but won't step up and be honest with their Managers or in their reviews, for fear of losing their jobs. Drinking and inter-office relations is encouraged.

Thank You for taking the time to express your concerns regarding your time at Addison. Knowing you were at Addison for 5-7 years I hope that you noticed our DEI initiative, progress, task force and sponsors. We ARE committed to diversity in race, age and background across the entire organization. I would welcome you to email us, at a confidential email, peoplefirst@addisongroup.com if you would like to elaborate on the other items you mentioned. The behaviors you mentioned are not what this organization is about from top to bottom so we would like to give you the opportunity to discuss all of this in greater detail. Thank You.
