The pay is embarrassingly low for the amount of work expected. The base salary hovers around 50–60k, and anything above the very bottom of that range is basically reserved for people with years of experience. Commission is 2% (They'll lie about that in the interview process). During the interview process they love to talk about “earning potential,” but the actual compensation sheet isn't sent to you until you're 6 months into the job. Hmmmmmm Wonder why.
The turnover is constant and extremely telling. You’re regularly expected to do the work of several people at once, since everyone is leaving constantly. The company actually hires very capable and driven people, but most of them figure out pretty quickly that staying long-term isn’t worth it.
The hours are also not what you’re told in interviews. It’s presented as a normal 9–5 role, but it is actually 8 (I was lied to in the interview process) and in reality the expectation is that you’re always available. Lunch breaks are basically nonexistent and the workload does not stop when the workday ends.
The roles you’re asked to recruit for are often unrealistic from the start. Many come with little to no useful information, terrible pay, short contracts, and experience requirements that make absolutely no sense for the compensation offered. When the market clearly isn’t interested, leadership still acts like it’s a recruiter performance issue instead of acknowledging that the roles themselves are the problem. Some people at this company were so mean to me that I would cry multiple times a week... It's recruiting, not brain surgery. They clearly forget that.
They also promote the idea that their hiring process moves incredibly fast, but that speed comes at the expense of quality. Candidates are pushed to interview whenever the company wants, regardless of their availability, and the focus becomes filling the role quickly rather than finding the right person.
Favoritism within teams is also a major problem. Certain people have far more influence over which candidates get submitted, and the reasoning behind those decisions often feels arbitrary. It creates a frustrating and demoralizing environment where recruiters are blamed for problems that are completely outside their control.
Overall, the culture feels chaotic, exhausting, and poorly managed. The high turnover speaks for itself.
This job is fine if you're trying to get some experience, but staying here long term is a death wish.
