Pros

absolutely none. they are the worst people to work for. they only care about money and nothing else.

Cons

so many I can't type them all out. the yelling and disorganization is probably at the top of the list. then come the lies, the racism, the sexism. They say they are doing better with women - they aren't. they barely hire any non white people its like working in a huge frat house. they have tried to "improve" but its all temporary and on the surface, the same issues still exist

The safety and well-being of our employees, while providing a respectful, and harassment and discrimination free workplace, is taken very seriously by the company.We encourage you, and all of our employees, to speak up immediately when you are aware that unacceptable behavior is taking place within our company. We will not tolerate this type of behavior, and have strict policies regarding this and retaliation in our company handbook

Pros

Decent commission structure, variety of recruiting tools, no micromanaging

Cons

Lots of lies during my interview to make this sound like the perfect opportunity. Lied about team size, day-to-day tasks, growth potential...everything was dwindling out by the time I joined. They cut down on perks that really caught my eye (PTO policy, remote capabilities, mobile data reimbursement, affordable healthcare, etc.) My computer barely worked and getting a replacement was out of the question. Upper management offered no support at all and our only conversations were about how much money I'd be making them. There was absolutely no training. It felt like I was being urged to fail from day one. There's a ton of office gossip, it was like being in high school.

It is very upsetting to hear you feel this way. We have spent countless hours communicating back and forth with our employees to make sure the culture is everything they wanted, and more. We have received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from our employees, who feel that the morale at the office, including the perks, have never been better! It is important to note that some of what was said in this post is not true and while we believe that feedback is truly a gift, we ask you to please make sure you are posting accurate information when you post on Glassdoor. HR would be happy to clear things up for you so please feel free to give us a call at any time!

Pros

This is a company by recruiters, for recruiters. If you pick up the business (on your own) and work hard, there is a lot of money in this industry. While management has issues, there are some great people working here. If you make the right connections, you can learn a lot.

Cons

Roles outside of recruiters and favored management are not valued, change resistance is high, and there is a large gap between the corporate office and the satellite offices. Compensation is sub-par and the non-salary benefits are not competitive with the particular market I was in.

Thanks so much for writing in - as stated, we love feedback from our employees. We are sorry that you felt that our compensation and non-salary benefits were not competitive, we actually constantly hear the opposite. We are slowly but sure embracing the evolving technology and ideas that are disrupting the recruiting industry but will continue to be better with it. We wish you the best of luck on your future endeavors.
