Great place to work!

Pros

The environment is very entrepreneurial where management does not micromanage but is supportive. Company has great bonuses, commission plan, provides merit pay increases, and provides other nice perks such as President's Club. Softworld is process and numbers oriented and everyone is held accountable.

Cons

Because Softworld is still a growing company, there's not much room for advancement since the organization is still relatively flat when it comes to hierarchy. It's a great place to work if you want to be an individual contributor. Otherwise, management opportunities are few and far between.

Pros

I was approached by Softworld to support a DoD/Intel customer; Softworld is a subcontractor on this contract. From the first call from the recruiter to dealing with Account Manager/PM, and the Director, I've had a 1st class experience. They are completely transparent with updates, feedback, etc, and address all concerns in a timely matter. I also received a healthy pay increase to join this contract. So, in summary, they pay well, they run a great office in the DC area, know their customers and contracts extremely well, and seem to always be available to speak with and address concerns. Highly recommend.

Cons

Benefits are expensive for a family. They seem to make it up with higher pay though. They do not offer much paid training (certifications, etc), but do offer to reimburse from time to time.

Pros

This is a company on the rise. Lots of opportunity as a recruiter. Tons of great positions to work on and lots of room for advancement. There have been a number of promotions since I have been here. Recruiters are treated as equals with the sales team. Management is very engaged and involved with the business. I feel like I can go to my manager or any manager in the company for help. I have weekly meetings with my manager, monthly training, and even monthly meetings with my VP! All of these are focused on training and getting better at my job. My last company I maybe talked to my VP twice a year. Here he will actually jump in and help me with a search! I have learned more here this year than the rest of my career combined. I'm also making more money than any other job I've had.

Cons

The company has grown so fast that it looks like we are out of space. They just expanded the office but it looks like that filled up pretty fast. Feels cramped at times but it's not that big of a deal.
