Pros

What can I say, but working with Ms. Cait Farrell was an absolutely wonderful experience! Being laid off was stressing enough, but Ms. Farrell and her daily call ins' gave me peace knowing she was lobbying in my favor to find me employment. I would not only recommend Ms. Farrell, but the Addison Group as well to anyone looking for a job.

Cons

The only con I have is that I am relocating to Myrtle Beach, SC and will not have the pleasure of working with Cair Farrell, but look forward to working with Addison's sister office in Charleston, SC.

Hi There! Thanks for sharing your thoughts – we agree Cait is a Rockstar and we are happy to hear she is providing you with exceptional service. While it is sad you are moving away, the wonderful recruiters in our Charlotte office will be able to pick up where Cait left and make the relocation seamless! Don’t hesitate to reach out if there is anything we can do once you are settled in SC.

Pros

AG invests in their employees. With ample on the job training and structured development in individual fields, AG gives all those who work there an opportunity to continue to grow their personal skill set while adding others. The atmosphere compares to a normal friend group. On the day to day, working with your team you can expect real teammates who will hold you to your word and support you in your venture. We always know where each other stands at the end of the day and make the constant effort to keep morale high. We work for ourselves and each other, and the rewards that are often provided for the success we see. We work hard and we play harder. Corporate makes the effort to create a relationship at all levels. They make decisions based on the benefit of everyone, not just them. All in all, the opportunity AG has provided for me and my family has been a God Send. I was referred by a friend who had (and still has) a position here and they took a chance on me. After hitting my one year mark, I am happy to report that it all worked out well and have much to thank them for.

Cons

A con of AG is some people just simply can't hack it. They have the personality to be successful and the skill set but are not capable of applying the daily discipline to developing a book of business. We have the chance to create a friendship with our new coworker(s) and they make the decision to change their career path based on the quality/amount of work we maintain. For some it can be overwhelming at first, but with the immediate gratification socialization that exists in today's society, it will take mental strength from any applicant to understand Leonardo did not paint the Chapel in a day.
