Pros

After moving away from the area it forced me to find something new. Once I knew I was coming back to DC my first call was to the management at Motion. After hearing from some other firms in the area it was an easy choice to join Motion for a second time. The specialized teams allows you to make sure you are a subject matter expert in the field that you recruit for. This helps you separate yourself from other recruiters in the area. The full desk team environment makes it competitive in the best way possible. It also allows you to make the most out of your opportunity, there is plenty of help along the way but this job is what you make it.

Cons

As it is at most recruiting firms the turnover can be tough to deal with at times.

Pros

- Free Bagels - Good training

Cons

Pay is far below what the role demands. Management is unprofessional and sets unrealistic expectations with little recognition or reward. No commission is paid until 10 full-time placements are made. Health insurance benefits are poor. A culture of bullying is tolerated and goes unaddressed. Employees are encouraged to mislead candidates and use their personal information to generate more sales, which raises serious ethical concerns.
