Pros

-You will learn how to have tough conversations -Flex Fridays -Fun Culture -They dont "track your calls" but it is very very metrics driven.

Cons

So many. Their MO is to hire people with little to no industry experience (no degree or background requirements literally at all) and brainwash them into thinking this normal. "Normal" meaning grind all day to find candidates, pressure them into taking jobs they may or may not want, and if they dont accept then working extra hours to replace them as soon as possible. You are really only told good job when you close a deal. If a deal falls through, you are reprimanded, likely coached on how to pressure better, and told to work harder. Granted, some teams are better than others, and many managers are better than others. You really will learn how to recruit quickly and well. Do you have autonomy over what jobs you recruit for? No. Once you prove yourself you can likely chase the higher billing jobs but that could take years. Sooooooo many deals are closed with no commission - but don't worry we're still making Mondo money so it's fine! The base salaries are a joke, and promotions really only occur if you are tight with the president. Your entire career trajectory can be dictated by your relationship with her. Want to spend weeknights and weekends stressing about a deal or about a candidate? Perfect job for you. Want to not be able to step away from your phone for an hour worried you might miss a ping? Come on! Don't get me wrong, certain people thrive at this job - but you have to have a very specific mentality (do anything you have to do to get the deal done). Oh and I heard multiple stories of people literally getting berated by management if stuff hits the fan.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

I decided I’m sick of seeing the fake 5 star reviews. This place will tear you down, expect unrealistic metrics that don’t translate to anything, and it was an insanely toxic environment. I would not recommend working here to my worst enemy. I get why companies and hiring managers don’t work with them ever again. If you think of applying look at turnover and the amount they hire across all offices. Went to other staffing companies and realized how insane they operate it’s almost comical
