Pros

Free alcohol Cornhole Great hours Free booze Free outings

Cons

Literally a sorority and frat house. Managers sleeping with employees Managers choosing favorites and manipulating senior management. Managers lying about employees that aren’t even theirs to get them fired. An absolutely toxic environment filled with trash low life individuals who thrive on bullying and exclusivity. Half the office is a bunch of mean girls who work together to run off hardworking people that can succeed if given a positive environment.

Pros

Obtain a great foundation for your next career move. Easy company to work for.

Cons

The benefits are not great. High out of pocket costs and terrible coverage. Also, no work from home options or flex time available. Unfortunately, this was a big factor for me and played into why I left the company.

It's a love/hate relationship

Pros

Addison Group is like that bad boy boyfriend you need to dump, but you stay with him because you love him...and you hate that. Its a love/hate relationship. It's a work hard/play hard type of environment. You get paid for what you produce and you are compensated well. Benefits are costly (typical in staffing). Most senior Management are really great and care about employees. GREAT training! Room for growth- senior leadership is always open to chat and help. Always do the right thing for candidates/clients.

Cons

You work with strong, type A people who have a lot of freedom. It's exhausting to work on a team at times, communication is often unprofessional. Top producers, sensitive people, people with high tempers, ect. are given a free pass and leave others frustrated. This causes high turnover. I have been yelled at, witnessed sales people throw things , people come back from lunch drunk, and other team members yelling at each other in the office. This does not happen every day, but multiple times a month. How are these things not addressed?
