Pros

None! Oh, if you consider screwing people over a positive and/or taking advantage of those too naive to notice, this place is for you! The San Jose office more than does so; it breathes cheating, stealing, and lying while smiling in your face.

Cons

Everything! There is a reason why people leave! The turnover is unbelievable, and when they are lying to potential new hires about all this money one could make, it is a LIE! You don't make anything commission wise because the division directors take it from you and/or mgmt states that it is just the Robert Half way. Current colleagues manipulate Salesforce with duplicate files. Even better, if you enter notes and detail your activities, that is still not enough to prove what you close. Division directors and mgmt go by opinions and he said, she said nonsense. Facts are irrelevant. This place is the ultimate black hole. I cannot stand negative energy, and writing this review is difficult. But, if it helps save a hard-working, ethical individual from joining a toxic place, then I did my job.

Pros

Very flexible work that can be done from anywhere. Would give half a star if possible.

Cons

You have the worst comp plan out of any other big recruiting company. Upper management promotes hostile work environments by discussing firing people and taking commissions from those that they are supposed to be training, this is in front of everyone in the bull pin. I have also been retaliated against when trying to give feedback, they won’t help and will try and get you to quit if you give any negative feedback. The sales team has gone from 10 people to less than 5 in less than 2 years and they are letting people train and hire that are later demoted months later. I would stay far away from here and would only use this job as a stepping stone much better opportunity is elsewhere. Never work for Garry or Zach.
