Pros

Supportive management team, that invests heavily in their teams. There is a good balance between performance goals and accountability in a way that empowers their teams to be effective. At Adecco, they specialize in Verticals i.e Manufacturing and Technology, as opposed to department segments, like accounting and finance, or marketing. At Adecco, a recruiter can work any position from an entry level operator all the way to an executive position. That means each company only has one point of contact which our clients prefer. Also, we are not stuck only in regions, so although I'm based in Orange County, If I client has a role in another state, I can not only work it, but also bring on the team in that city to help. This has made it much more lucrative to work at Adecco than at other recruiting firms. Lastly, the fees are the most competitive. They offer a Draw plan, that pays a commission of 40,50 & 60% or a salary plan that pays at 10,15, or 20%. In addition, managers also get a generous override as well.

Cons

It's like a billion-dollar start-up, because Search is new. The team has scaled over 200% in the last 2 years, so they are still building out some of the foundational tools needed. Regardless this has not hindered my ability to make great money in a supportive team

Pros

they offer work from home for those who want it

Cons

The company's executive team is like a revolving door. They have also turned into a micromanaging organization, which has lowered employee morale tremendously, this coming from the new CEO who is completely obsessed with data and doesn't come from a recruitment background so doesn't understand the many nuances that go into recruitment.
