Addison Group reviews

I have been with Addison internally for 2 years and found that my experience could never be described as boring. I have had the opportunity to grow personally and professionally, being taken under the wing of the best of the best. I have been blessed with opportunities that most have to go years into their career to have. The chance to show what you are capable of really starts from the very first day and it pays off. The Staffing industry is always moving and changing and being on the back side of it really challenges you to think outside of the box but never are my ideas turned down because I am thinking 'too small' In addition, we have a great culture and always trying to connect everyone internally even if they aren't on your specific team or office. It's truly a work hard play harder thought process and it always pays off.

I am in awe of some of the reviews that have been written about this company. I have worked at Addison Group for a few years and have seen the changes made in order to transform as the world does too. I reflect on the growth I have experienced since I started with the company, both professional and personal, and I cherish those around me for giving me space to make mistakes, work through them, and ultimately come out on the other side as a stronger individual. I have seen many people come and go, and one thing I see in common with the people that leave is the expectation of perfection, and non-flexibility to give people / organizations grace and effort while they focus on building something for the better. These people are mostly standing on the sidelines secretly casting stones, and writing about it later behind a screen. There was a review in here about racism – I will be very blunt in saying that I have watched this company invest millions (plural) of dollars into creating an interview program / process that teaches internal hiring managers and team members about unconscious bias, and how to dissolve that major flaw in hiring, and in general. Hundreds of employees were flown to our major offices to participate in this program even Before recent current events exploded throughout the media. I see our campus recruiting taking measures and partnering with universities to ensure we are getting a diverse candidate set, I see our C suite hiring a new VP of Diversity and Inclusion, so that we can grow at the rate of society and beyond in getting better as an organization. I see our CEO sending weekly updates, inviting us to listen to the Addison Group podcast where there is a direct focus in Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion—addressing racial injustice directly. I see managers and team members openly talking about BLM/BIPOCLM, protesting, joining webinars, trainings, engaging and leaning into making this organization better. I also see the other side—I watch employees show up, demand perfection, even if they themselves are not open to change and growing to become a better team member, employee, and person. Those who do not award flexibility, and the effort to contribute to make a better tomorrow are usually the ones who leave and write hasty reviews. Take everything with a grain of salt, Glassdoor Review Readers. The best we can all do is demand that we are better people today than we were in previous days—and THAT is what makes an organization, and THOSE are the type of people that stay.
