Pros

The people you work alongside with.

Cons

Everything here is a joke. The only people who say positive things are people who have never worked anywhere else and know any better. There will most likely be some company response to this that is written be one of the "kool-aid drinking" group. All the people with real talent left awhile ago. Their entire mantra is to rip clients off 1-2 times with industry high markups, rather than actually build relationships with clients. Now working on the other side of the fence (internal recruiter), I would never sign this company up as a vendor to use.

Pros

none. the all of good reviews are 100% fake. i did get a free bowling ball for working here. but since the turnover is so high here they stopped doing that.

Cons

the recruiting industry as a whole is a toxic environment but technipower is the worst. the job is calling businesses that have been called by 100 other recruiters to sell them the same candidates that 100 other recruiters have while marking up the price 75%-85% while other agencies undercut you. The base salary is not enough to live off and the commissions aren't much better unless you screw over your clients with an extremely high mark up. I made technipower $150k in my first year and i made less than$30k. If you leave the company and go to another agency they sue you. even if your husband, wife, mother, or child is still an employee working for them. if you are desperate for money take this job but keep looking for something else. but don't let them know you are looking for another job because they will fire you for that. they fire people for anything i had 2 friends get promoted to management positions just to be fired a month later. another friend was fired because he was looking for other jobs on his lunch break. do yourself a favor and stay away.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback on your past employment at TechniPower. Judging by the passion in your comments, it sounds like recruiting just wasn't a good fit for you. Sometimes the key to a happy career is in finding the right fit and we hope in the years since you were employed here you've found that fit. TechniPower has experienced incredible growth over the years and in some of those years, growing pains. We're sorry to hear you had a bad experience but our team of rock stars (many of whom have been here 9 years or more) are happy to work in a fast-paced, inside sales organization with uncapped commissions and a great family work balance. And we agree, Dan and Caitie are great!

Don't do it to yourself...seriously.

Pros

Hard to pitch a pro when there is likely a con to follow. Depending on territory, manager and your personal will to succeed, you can close deals within your first few weeks out of training. Or suck up and you'll be there for life, deserving or not. You can also sleep, relive your youth, and not pick up the phone all day. Management lets you get away with anything. Out of sight, out of mind.

Cons

The corporate culture makes a middle school look like a company worth taking seriously. Rude, backstabbing, and lies. Even in the interview. Trust yourself and nobody else. They sell you bull, you bite and you'll be gone within a year. No matter the effort put in. Fake in general. Had me fooled. It is a revolving door.
