Pros

I used to think there were some pros, but after working at Goodwin, I have found the ownership and leadership team to be liars. To be fair, the trainers are the best part of the company.

Cons

Favoritism, the owner is fake and phony, and the CEO lacks integrity. When you lose 100 people in 3 months, that tells a story. When more than 1/2 the team has zero income in February, that tells a story.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we strongly disagree with several of the statements made, we do appreciate your recognition of the business launch resources within our organization, as we invest heavily in helping Recruiting Partners build long-term success. Goodwin Recruiting is built on integrity, accountability, and relationships, and those values remain non-negotiable for our leadership team and organization as a whole. As with any entrepreneurial and performance-based business model, there are periods of transition and evolution, particularly within a changing recruiting market, but we remain focused on supporting our partners, delivering results for our clients, and continuing to strengthen our culture and business for the long term. We recognize that recruiting is a relationship-driven industry, and we agree that attracting, developing, and retaining great recruiters is critically important. That focus continues to be a major priority for our leadership team as we grow and evolve.

Pros

Fully remote, work from anywhere; access to senior leadership; extremely supportive environment

Cons

Some partners aren't collaborative - they don't want to work with other members of the team to create shared success, but would rather keep opportunities for themselves.

Pros

Great support network and helpful team! The training program is comprehensive and paced very well. The recruiter network is made up of professionals with deep industry backgrounds.

Cons

It takes a bit of time to establish yourself, but they are very straightforward about what to expect, and offer a lot of support and guidance to get you there.
