Good place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast paced. Possibility to create your own path. Several promotion opportunities if you really show exceptional skill. They expect a lot but also provide the tools for success. Recent investment in enterprise technologies. Clients are 500MM and up so it's a good place to get enterprise sales experience as a young person. Low attrition rate in a high turnover industry.

Cons

If you are looking for a 9-5, this isn't the place for you. If you like a rewarding grind, this is a good place. Not a very mature company. Creates it's own special challenges. Average age around 26 and overall company still young. Pay starts significantly lower than many of the other staffing firms. Other firms that pay this low are much smaller. That said, our top competitors expect much higher output for the increased starting pay.

Unmatched culture and opportunity to grow!

Pros

- Get to work with your best friends everyday - Autonomy, but managers give you support and make sure you're doing everything possible to do well - Opportunity to grow and succeed quickly - Competitive without being hostile - Possible to succeed and still have a work/life balance

Cons

Staffing itself is a tough industry, so everyone will go through lows sometimes and you have to be able to brush it off. That is more a con of the industry, less of Brooksource. Everyone I work with at Brooksource has been through those highs and lows, so you have a large amount of support to get through those types of things.

Pros

1. Culture. Brooksource has built a culture that encourages and embraces you to be yourself no matter what role you're in. 2. Leadership. The leadership and your peers are top notch. I've heard that you are the average of the 5 people you hang out with the most and you are constantly surrounded by people that will push you to your limits and help/teach you if you fall short. 3.Freedom. If you want to do something innovative or creative (as long as it makes business sense) you are free to do pretty much anything you want. 4. Training. The training that Brooksource provides for both recruiting and sales is the one of the biggest reasons why i joined. Like most people do, i came in with no recruiting or sales experience and over the course of a year and some change i feel very confident and have excelled in both areas. 5. Community. We have an event at least twice a year to give back to the community in some way shape or form. Grow wihtinin the company for a few years and they will send you to Mexico to build a house with your peers for a family in need. Epic.

Cons

I wouldn't necessarily call this a con, but more of just general advice. Everyone here works their @$$ off. If you are the type of person that wants to work 40 hours and collect a paycheck while they pursue their real passion on the side... i wouldn't recommend working here. We like to have fun everyday, however we all take our work very seriously. Everyone understands that the person across or beside them is building their career. Another word of advice. This job is hard. Sometimes you have to put in long hours to produce the perfect candidate or to get meetings on the calendar. Just like any other job, there are awesome days and days that suck. Personally i would say that its been a 85% awesome days and 15% days that I needed a drink after. All in all, this company is awesome. Yeah some of the work is tough, but if you're willing to grind you will be rewarded.
