Pros

A handful of the people I worked with.

Cons

-Working constantly to try and compete over the other 350+ recruiters to make money. -Classified as a 1099 but treated like an employee by their demands & micro-management. The idea that it's a "partnership" and "your own business" is the furthest thing from the truth. -Made to sign a non-compete contract that is insane and illegal in several states and the FTC is looking to ban them completely because they "hurt workers and harm competition". -Overt preferential treatment to certain individuals. -Hypocrisy on every level but certainly in their core values especially, "Integrity in Everything We Do". -Misinformation about the individual's startup costs which were around $2,000 in all before you make a dime. -Treated like a cog in a money-making machine with little regard for the "partners" as long as they make money. The more people they add to the company, the more money they make so that serves as their end game along with growing their database. -What is billed as a hospitality recruiting agency turned into a free-for-all of taking on every industry out there for monetary gains and specializing in nothing.

Pros

I'm so happy to be at Goodwin Recruiting. Everyone I have interacted with here has been so kind and it has been such a pleasant experience. It's such a healthy environment and community to work with and I love my teammates. Everyone has been so patient and supportive of me as I've adjusted to my new position here as well. I also feel really good about working for a company whose core values align so well with my own and take measures to reinforce them. Goodwin Recruiting also promotes a healthy work/life balance. I'm in a role that challenges me, fulfills my need for community and progress, and allows me to help people while doing something I am passionate about.

Cons

I really don't have anything negative to say here.
