Pros

Gained some new skills? Got really thick skin after being put down so much.

Cons

No upward mobility. Management plays favorites. No work/life balance. Micromanagement. Discrimination. Rampant drinking and drug use. Not a professional work environment. AMs take in fake job orders to make themselves look better.

We have a consistent history of developing internal staff, including job advancement. As a result, our number of 5-10+ year employees grows each year. We pride ourselves on supporting a balance between work and life, especially since operating remotely for nearly two years. Staff tenure and work/life balance are key reasons people come to VanderHouwen and stay long-term. As a top diversity-owned company, we create thriving workplaces by intentionally weaving diversity and inclusion practices throughout our recruiting services and internal culture. Our employees are held accountable to behave professionally. We take this seriously and address any matters swiftly and effectively. Our staff operates with integrity, and it shows in our service delivery and the long-term relationships we have with our customers and staff. All of our employees work together as a supportive, cohesive team to achieve this.

Pros

I have applied to several consulting firms to obtain a position as an HR contractor. In all truthfulness, my experience with Vanderhouwen & Associates has been the best without exception. The company recruiter who initially reached out to me regarding a position opening displayed the highest level of professionalism, integrity, and sincerity. She was empathetic and listened to my interests and long-term goals. Further, the recruiter was very responsive when I reached out to her, thoroughly answered my questions, and consistently followed up on any outstanding questions or issues. I've never encountered such genuine sincerity and interest from other recruiters from other firms. I can truly say that Vanderhouwen and Associates is heads above any other consulting firms I've dealt with!

Cons

I have no negative comments to make. This firm is 'top-notch.'
