      Such a joke!

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They pay a good commission They do have a solid client list They pay your medical premium

      Cons

      Nepotism runs rampant - if you're related to the owners or a friend of the family, you can get away with everything - dress code violations, coming in late, leaving early - taking holidays whenever you want They used to have unlimited vacations and sick days, but recently took that away and now only have 5 sick days and vacations based on years of service Horrible habit of trying to screw over employees and consultants. They try to pay non recruiters as little as possible - they short change so much and They have no long term vision or strategy - everything revolves around how can you make me money this very second They have some people who have been here forever and are super resistant to change and others who want to change everything including everyone who has worked here. I would run away, run far away

      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!

      AMAZING COMPANY CULTURE

      Technical recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Really fun group to work with, beautiful office as well as a great location, and best of all there is no micromanagement. You're free to work the way you need to if that's what makes you successful, and if you work hard, you're set up to succeed and make really good money.

      Cons

      Not really a con but if you need hand-holding, this, or any recruiting house isn't the place for you.

      Yes, OST is definitely all about helping you help yourself but we can definitely improve on our training. Rest assured, that's on its way as well!

      Not a bad place to work but lots of improvement needed

      Senior recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Recruiters get paid very well - chance to make a lot of money 2. Freedom to work on what jobs you want to work on 3. Medical premiums are paid for

      Cons

      1. Cliques/nepotism - You get different perks based on who you work with and who you are related to 2. Management frequently changes their mind regarding direction of the company 3. There used to be unlimited vacation/sick days - that has been removed and changed to only 5 sick days and vacation days based on longevity 4. Work from home is frowned upon - butts in seats mentality

      We are sorry you feel this way about working at OST. The reason for a change in vacation days and expecting face to face conversations is so we can head in the right direction creating a new culture. We have moved to a new office and are starting fresh to create a company that everyone feels comfortable working at and is treated equally. If you still feel this way and are still working at OST we encourage you to approach your manager or the head of HR with these issues and we will look to resolve them the best way we can.
