Pros

Lots of opportunities to go out and booze.

Cons

Inorganic or forced friendships that others call “culture”. Be ready to have people you’ve only known for a month tell you that they love you and you’ve joined a family. Very low starting wages and a poor commission structure. A CEO that is known to be “creepy” amongst girls. No professional training from anyone with any real tenure in sales or recruiting. Guys were dropping the n word at company events. The week each branch of the company went through layoffs in 2020 the executive team took out a party bus to celebrate someone’s promotion - thanks fam.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we are extremely disappointed to hear that it was a negative one as the incidents you have described do NOT reflect our core values or the type of environment we want for our employees. 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. 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. It is for these reasons that we do NOT stand for the types of behavior and language that you have described. Would you please email us at success@eightelevengroup.com so that we can learn more about this situation?
