Pros

First off these reviews are strictly from TQL recruiters. This job blows... I worked in the Chicago 2 office for almost 2 years and it was a nightmare. Lied to constantly from "upper" (Im still not sure if there's a management structure?) management. Recruiter's will emphasize the beer fridays and tv's with ESPN on all day for a reason... THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THEY CAN TALK ABOUT THAT WILL DRAW YOU IN! Your a little puppy for 3 months (oh wait they actually had my hiring class be assistants for 6 months) You will work 6:45 CST - 4:15 CST (My broker kept me till 5pm CST everyday)

Cons

Keep looking for another job immediately upon hire - Future is 2 years at most No future here - you'll last no more than 2 years before your worn down with brutal pay and hours Turnover rate is almost 50% for a reason

Pros

Amazing work hard-play hard culture, plenty of opportunities for advancement, and really friendly coworkers. The job isn’t for everyone, but for those wanting to dig in, there’s so much opportunity for success here.

Cons

Not many holidays due to the nature of the industry

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
