While we would love every review to be a 5, I am happy to see the feedback and advice. I do know the items listed in the Pro section are critical to our long-term success, and we will continue to make the necessary adjustments to the things that have shown up on your list of cons. I received the feedback loud and clear about the pace of change, which is why slowed down in March and moving into Q2. I think you will see a more metered pace the rest of the year. Thank you again for your feedback, and thank you for being the best part of Goodwin Recruiting!

Pros

Goodwin offers excellent support, Ongoing training, Good communication, Transparency, and an opportunity to create your own success while helping others.

Cons

Not too many Cons. It would be nice if they offered $$ support when attending optional offsite meetings. However, as an independent contractor, I am able to write off those expenses.

Pros

Excellent company culture – collaborative, supportive, and team-oriented. Uncapped commission – earning potential is high for those willing to put in the effort. Extensive resources & continuous improvements – the company invests in tools, training, and technology to help recruiters succeed. Opportunities for growth – ability to take on additional roles, expand into different industries, and build a strong book of business.

Cons

Lengthy ramp-up period – success takes time, and it can take a few months to start seeing significant income. 100% commission-based – no base salary, so income can be unpredictable initially. No benefits – healthcare, retirement plans, and other traditional benefits are not provided to independent contractors

Thank you so much for being part of the Goodwin Recruiting team and for taking the time to provide this feedback. I am happy to see your list of pros and the last one pointing out the opportunity for growth. We are trying to bring in more experienced producers with to lead small teams to all for quicker ramp-up to offset the number one concern. As you mention in your advice, we are all over the plan to bring in experienced recruiters to build out teams. Thank you again for sharing your feedback.
