Pros

- Leadership is accessible at anytime for questions, advice, and strategy - Good base salary, and the commissions are great - Great coworkers who you can laugh with and are supportive of one another - Leadership is open to new ideas!

Cons

- You have to live in Chicago for advancement to other positions besides staffing. Company growth is not very feasible. - staffing is hard, but if you stick with it through the rough times and stay consistent, you WILL see success. - takes a while to ramp up to solid commission, but they have a process in place to support you during that.

Pros

Pros - They do try their best to bring in food at times (breakfast, snacks, etc) for employee morale. - Compensation potential is the sky, You genuinely get what you put in.

Cons

Pros - They do try their best to bring in food at times (breakfast, snacks, etc) for employee morale. - Compensation potential is the sky, You genuinely get what you put in. - The training program was pretty good. Cons - The office is very clique based. If you don't kiss up to your boss or the higher ups, you will never get promoted, no matter how much you bring in. - I watched a team do an interview process for a new candidate for their team. They had to two managers do their normal interviews, then they let one of the female recruiters meet with her to see if she would fit their friend group. The men on the team didn't get that opportunity, again pretty clique based. - If you don't drink with your coworkers, or go out to happy hours with them, you get in trouble for not being "involved" even if after work hours. - A lot of unfulfilled promises, raises, bonus, remote days, and they never follow through. - supposed to be hybrid (3 days on site, 2 days remote) as per the offer letter, but once you start, they tell you its 100% on-site unless you hit metrics. - with it being fully on-site, 3 people on my team are specifically fully remote..
