Pros

I had been with RTA for about 2 years and I am having a hard time thinking of the positives. There are some nice people on some teams.

Cons

Where to start. They lie lie lie throughout the entire interview process and promise things that you soon find are not able to happen. The CEO(Leo Russell- NOT Tim Tobin) treats his employees like absolute dirt and loves to publicly shame them in front of the entire company. The company as a whole does not care about their employees. Compensation is a joke. The "bonuses" are a joke and have to be signed off by Leo who doesn't care about anyone but himself. The upper management is clearly making way too much money because they are spineless and cannot stand up to Leo because everyone is afraid of him. Leo runs his company through fear. And that is a fact. I could go on and on but I do not recommend working for this company at all.

Pros

Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. NONE

Cons

The OGP (upper management) is truly garbage when it comes to communication and planning. Before anything was forecasted and stuff was truly slowing down they wiped out 20% of their company and then cut pay and/or deferred commission payouts to a later date (whatever that means) on top of the already changed compensation plan that nobody has any idea what is to come it is not a good place to be. I would stay far away if you are looking for an agency to work for - their is no company culture and it is a glorified call center with promise of cash - most you'll ever make is 60K.

Pros

There are some really great people to work with at this company, you just need to find them and stick with them.

Cons

My biggest warning sign was when someone higher than me advised me to not submit a candidate to a client because they had not been employed for the past 6 months. Meanwhile this candidate had been caring for their terminally ill parent - not to mention the client then went and found this candidate themselves and interviewed them! Those higher than you are amazing at looking down upon you and being as rude as they possibly can. It amazed me how many people I saw walk out the front door in my 8 months of being there simply because of how they were being treated. No transparency, mean, passive aggressive and gossipy. My biggest piece of advice to management would be to get an ACTUAL HR DEPARTMENT. With such a high turnover rate, you would think someone would come to their senses and insist something needs to be changed or bring someone in to evaluate the problems. When people inform their manager that they are leaving, you can ensure yourself a miserable time until you officially leave. You will most likely have your team not say a word to you. You can also have my experience where those higher than me told me to not even bother coming in my last day. A company that does not hear their employees concerns or conduct exit reviews of those who are leaving will never be as successful as they can.
