Pros

I will say that they were great to work with during the pandemic, they allowed us to work remotely for as long as we needed, and provided a stipend for anything we might need to buy to set up a home office.

Cons

Honestly I had the worst time working here. The company culture was terrible, and it was hard to make any long-term connections. I also think the way we had to treat contractors on assignment with us was terrible, obviously it was all for the clients' bottom line, but I remember being on a call with a supervisor and they said in these cases "we have to let go of that empathy we kind of naturally want to have with people" which just did not sit right with me and my worldview. Also, there was no set way to go about contacting candidates, which meant the quality of service throughout the company varied SO widely

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
