Pros

Gained some new skills? Got really thick skin after being put down so much.

Cons

No upward mobility. Management plays favorites. No work/life balance. Micromanagement. Discrimination. Rampant drinking and drug use. Not a professional work environment. AMs take in fake job orders to make themselves look better.

We have a consistent history of developing internal staff, including job advancement. As a result, our number of 5-10+ year employees grows each year. We pride ourselves on supporting a balance between work and life, especially since operating remotely for nearly two years. Staff tenure and work/life balance are key reasons people come to VanderHouwen and stay long-term. As a top diversity-owned company, we create thriving workplaces by intentionally weaving diversity and inclusion practices throughout our recruiting services and internal culture. Our employees are held accountable to behave professionally. We take this seriously and address any matters swiftly and effectively. Our staff operates with integrity, and it shows in our service delivery and the long-term relationships we have with our customers and staff. All of our employees work together as a supportive, cohesive team to achieve this.

Pros

Friendly staff who actually work with you to get a job, and I like how they send reminders to submit the weekly time sheet for pay. I'm also surprised by their honesty and transparency with their hiring process.

Cons

There are no cons about this place, at least not for me.

Pros

Everyone is supportive and really care about their employees and make an effort to address any issues.

Cons

No cons so far, if you do what you're hired for and communicate if anything comes up, you're in good hands.
