Pros

4.5 day work week A lot of hands on training Bagel Wednesday’s we’re actually pretty lit

Cons

Micromanaging- you will be micro managed down to the MINUTE, and you will have to explain the reasoning behind everything you do. Not really hybrid- when I read the job post and went on interviews I was under the impression that I could choose which days to WFH and which days I’d be able to come into office. (With the understanding that while training I need to be in office) That’s company policy at least. People who were off training (some at senior status) still aren’t trusted to work remotely though, and are required to be in office. Also, as a newer employee who didn’t accumulate any PTO (which is where sick days were accrued from), when feeling unwell I was told I couldn’t work from home, and that I needed to take an unpaid day. Mind you I would’ve gone into the office unwell solely so I didn’t have to take an unpaid day. I knew that my manager wasn’t cool with anyone working from home though. When telling him I’d come in, and practically begging to be able to work some way some how (because this job was my livelihood) I was still told to stay home for everyone else’s comfort and safety, and not to do any work or clock in. When I went to HR about this I got no help and was met with “let me look into it.” I’ll also say the environment is negative. Aside from the micromanaging they look for minimal employee engagement with one another during work hours. Also the benefits are… yikes.

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.
