We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and honest feedback! Although, we are disappointed to hear that it was a negative one. Culture is everything here at Brooksource which is why we strive to create a welcoming environment where all our employees feel empowered to be the best. We say “strive” because as you have mentioned, our work is far from finished. Cultural changes do take time, and we believe we are taking the right steps. This includes the creation of our employee-led connection groups, joined together based on common backgrounds, identities, or interests to provide a safe space for conversation and development. We have also expanded our benefits to include mental wellness coverage, additional PTO, and parental leave for all employees, as well as tuition assistance for those who qualify. These are just some of our latest enhancements to our internal culture! As we continue to grow, so will the type of support and assistance we provide to our employees, consultants, and clients. Thank you again for your feedback, as it is reviews like this that help us better align our plans for the future with the needs of our internal employees!

Pros

- good PTO - nice people - room for growth if you can tolerate it

Cons

- industry low base salary - don’t see commission for a while - completely dependent on the territory your boss gives you, no ability to find your own business - little to no diversity - mandatory happy hours that are fun at first then become not fun when you want friends outside of the office - the only way to move up is to make your whole friend circle work friends

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, though we are disappointed to hear that it was an unpleasant one. Culture is very important to us at Brooksource, which is why we strive to create a welcoming environment where all our employees feel empowered to do their best. One such example of this is our employee-led connection groups, joined together based on common backgrounds, identities, or interests to provide a safe space for conversation and development. We recognize that the culture we seek to cultivate may not be a fit for all employees. We also appreciate your honesty regarding the earnings potential of our employees. Is every employee who steps through our doors wildly successful? Unfortunately, no. However, we are proud of the fact that our base salary plus commission structure has allowed a significant number of our employees to create a strong financial footing for themselves (and their families) so early in their careers. If you have any additional feedback or suggested improvements, please email us at success@eightelevengroup.com as we are always trying to better ourselves and the experiences we offer.
