Bad leadership and lots of window dressing

Pros

They have strange art in their NY office. It seems to be the taste of CEO Mr Leo "I love myself" Russell.

Cons

More concerned with growth than with the well being of their current employees. Leadership's playbooks are all about artful deception.

Pros

Had the pleasure of working with some incredibly talented colleagues and clients. The office is beautiful minus some of the bizarre art pieces the CEO buys. Great environment for fresh graduates and/or employees who benefit from great clients/commission structures.

Cons

As other reviews, the CEO’s managing style. Sending aggressive emails to the whole NYC office that make you think “why do I work here?” The company is growing pretty rapidly which is causing them to make new initiatives, constantly. Employees are being overloaded and the company isn’t sticking to them. Unfortunately, the only way to make money is if you’re managing large accounts. RTA is also “right place, right time.” They hired a Dir. of TA to better streamline policies/employee feedback but the CEO and him don’t seem to be on the same page. They advocate for office relocation if you’re hitting your numbers which is great except when nothing is signed or formal. Don’t pitch ideas to employees unless it is fully approved by CEO/client. They have a lot of growing up to do.

Pros

Rob Weglarz from the Morristown office and Billy Lynch were very helpful and dedicated to helping me find the right position in a very short period of time. Both had a very positive attitude and were both very approachable and responsive in their conduct.

Cons

No cons that I could think of.
