Pros

Compensation can be decent if you're lucky enough to hit commissions, but it's highly variable, and the stress and culture don’t make up for it.

Cons

Micromanagement from upper leadership Unrealistic KPIs and daily call expectations High internal turnover and burnout Lack of genuine support or training from management Focus on quantity over quality in placements Poor internal communication Pressure to push candidates into roles, even when not a good fit Little work-life balance; expectation to work long hours Commission structure is inconsistent and heavily dependent on unrealistic targets Toxic competitive environment between team members Feedback is often ignored or met with blame
