Pros

Young Company with Young People

Learn a lot, but not for everybody

Technical recruiter

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Management is very hands-on and trains you well. You can talk to them about anything career-wise and they're very supportive about that skill development. The teams are small and become more knowledgeable than the average recruiter in the market on engineering. Full life cycle recruiting ensures you're responsible and capable in the whole process from landing clients, negotiating rates and salary, stakeholder management, sourcing, closing, etc. You'll develop a strong technical background and how to be adaptable in high-stress, fast-paced situations.

Cons

Lack of prioritizing diversity and inclusivity is a MAJOR understatement. High-stress for the reward isn't for everybody and you can burn out fast. Super difficult to maintain work-life balance because the environment fosters chasing more and more and more. Taking time off for anything will have you playing catch up so many people felt guilty or were guilted and keep working. Obviously high turnover. Low pay for market.

Pros

Good place to learn and develop business acumen. The money aspect is situational and circumstantial (if you’re in Phoenix, sure..comparatively you can make good money vs. NYC, San Francisco, DC, Boston, etc). Some people care, they’ll be crushed.

Cons

Dishonest, abhorrent behavior from leadership. Senior leadership will advance after misconduct, accusers and victims will sacrifice. Out of touch C-Suite. You’ll recognize if you ask them any meaningful questions (vs. them talking to you). Try it…see if you disagree. Regarding DE&I, if you know then you know. It will not happen with current directives. Majority of people are waiting out the company being sold (allegedly) in 2022. Any company purchasing this organization is outright misinformed. A lemon for sure. If you’re currently working here and don’t have a plan where you get a bonus based on being purchased (which, allegedly, many 1+ year people have)..get out.
