Pros

Culture is positive and work schedule is consistent. Hybrid work schedules for every employee. Performance driven. Management cares and I can have direct conversations with my manager all the way to the CEO.

Cons

Hiring market has been slow so some of my team members have been let go. I've seen us rehire strong performers though when able.

Not a company to take serious

Pros

Depending on manager, you create your own schedule.

Cons

I was just let go because of “lack of work,” which honestly isn’t surprising considering how fast this company is sinking. Think Titanic, but quicker. They’ve let go more than half the staff in the past year, and at this point the headcount is maybe 50… on a good day. No new accounts are coming in, and the clients they do have are putting in their 30-day notices like clockwork. Recruiting and keeping employees? An absolute joke. The people running the place don’t seem to care who gets let go, as long as they can sit around talking sports and cracking jokes while pretending they’re busy. If you’re thinking about working here, don’t. And if you’re thinking about partnering with them, good luck — you’ll need it

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for your contributions to Hire Velocity. We take all comments seriously, as they help us continue to strengthen our employee and client experience. To clarify scheduling expectations, our teams have some flexibility within our standard operating hours. As a contract based organization, work hours and assignments are structured to best serve our clients and candidates. We understand your concern about workload changes. Contract needs naturally fluctuate throughout the year - especially during the holiday season when hiring activity slows. As a company we make every effort to reassign employees when possible, but there are times when reductions in force are necessary for operational efficiency. These decisions are never made lightly. Your comments about leadership engagement are also important. We expect all leaders to model professionalism and remain accessible, and our Open Door Policy is in place so employees can voice concerns at any time. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience and we wish you much success.
