Pros

Great coworkers and managers. Welcoming, inclusive and feedback-oriented culture. You can make a good amount of money. Lots of "give back" initiatives to local communities they operate in. Remote work opportunities. Ambitious and transparent goals. We provide a truly valuable service to our clients.

Cons

Not really a con, but management is in the process of implementing a new performance measurement system. It'll be really useful in the long run, but there are some kinks to iron out in the meantime. Also wish we had access to 401k contributions sooner.

Pros

I’ve worked at Swoon for 5+ years, and overall have been very happy with my time there. I feel lucky to have trust from my superiors, which took time and effort to earn – these are not automatically given in the workplace. We have a great leadership team that cares so much for their employees and their success and well-being. The leadership team is challenged daily with keeping Swoon moving forward and that sometimes means having to make difficult decisions regarding organizational structure, client support, employee performance goals, etc. I’ve been lucky to have some great mentors, leaders, and colleagues over those 5 years who have shared their knowledge. I’ve done my best to take what I’ve learned from their shared experience and from working through my own challenges with their guidance to get to the position I’m in today. I have the mindset that if you work harder, apply what you learn daily to your next task, collaborate with others, take initiative to self-educate, and work hard (yes, I said it twice), then you will find success at Swoon. Swoon, and the staffing industry, in general, are not a place you can step into and expect to coast by and have success – you need to work at it. Same can be said of learning and playing a sport. You can’t just step into the batter’s box and expect to be able to hit a home run. The employees at Swoon who put in the extra effort, go the extra mile, and have success are recognized, and we celebrate their successes with recognition, commission payouts, and the potential to move up in their careers.

Cons

This industry is a roller coaster. Enjoy the ride.

Pros

I always know where I stand and feel heard as a member of the Swoon team. Transparent presentations about how the company is doing and where we are headed. I feel energized by the opportunity I see in future for the company and definitely see my role growing and elevating. Flexibility, development and training solutions, and tools are all available for me to do my job and feel some balance in my life.

Cons

Lots of change, takes some time to adjust. It is a good thing; however, to try new things, test new ideas, and see if they work.
