Pros

Many ways to earn bonus pay through hard work, and dedication. Paid weekly

Cons

-Competitive office -Recruiters compete over candidates from different job sites, and search results are the way you gather candidates, so the better the boolean logic or the faster you can get ahold of the person, the better. -Little to no training of recruiters (recruiters train recruiters, not management) -Hours were from 7:30am to 4:30am the first week, then they were from 7am-7pm (or when you had enough candidates for a client to go home. -No paid overtime, company is currently in a lawsuit for unpaid wages, see above reason -Contract recruiting for my role, contract data entry, contract cashiers, contract everything. -Healthcare starts after 90 days -Little PTO and no system in place for taking off days, counts against weekly metrics -Poor KPI's (conversations a day? You could call 100 people and if 10 answered the phone, then you were poorly performing) -KPI's were fudgable in Bullhorn (you could enter any bit of information that your metrics covered and that would record in Taleo) -Micro-management ("I was listening to your call and 'blah blah blah') -Culture rewards are pizza parties and drinks (Recruiters had to work/wait at the office for a 7pm company function down the road, since they were taking us to dinner it was a great time to get work done in front of a corporate figure-head)

Pros

Addison Group is a wonderful organization with incredible support from within, opportunities to grow, and great people to work with. I never expected to spend 4+ years of a career here starting out, - but I see a lot more time here in my future!

Cons

The workload can be demanding based on how successful you'd like it to be -- which is not a bad thing at all but the sky's the limit if you're willing to put in the work.
