Pros
- Culture - lots of recruiting agencies are CRAZY competitive and for a lack of better word "sneaky." Our teams are small so we all help each other out, a lot. There is none of the stuff you read about going on here.... no one listens in on your phone calls... you're not going to get fired if you have a lazy day and honestly... I never get hung up on. It's the construction industry so everyone I am talking to on the phone is pretty down to earth. - Managers- they are helpful, motivational, have fun personalities, and most importantly they are very good at their jobs.... which in recruiting is very important -Hour lunch break/ hours- I mean.. need I say more. I go to the gym most days and I LOVE IT. Everyone gets an hr at lunch and leaves at 5! No crazy hours here unless you want them. -Money: There is no cap on commission here...period... you work hard, you make money. I am 29 and making over 6 figures and I started here with NO experience (been here 3 years now.) I had a great mentor here, I am not scared of the phone and I'm self driven. -Location: its right by the orange, blue, green and red line, easy easy location
Cons
-Well... I am not a morning person so getting to work at 7:45am was challenging at first but I've gotten used to that now. - It's an open bull pen office which means everyone can hear you and you can hear them... all the time. So that one was a tough one for me to get over. And there are still days where I wish I had an office with a door I could close. On the other hand... this is very helpful in remaining in the know though.
