Pros

Team lunches, flexible breaks. Weekly pay.

Cons

Managers and everyone else coming in late even when live so close. Lack of communication, favoritism. Lack of diversity. Manager will purposely exclude you if you don’t miss up to her. You have to be talkative and join in on talking crap about candidates to fit in. No training or direction for new recruiters and managers didn’t seem to know how to properly train.

Pros

Addison Group is a great company to work for. One of the companies I've enjoyed the most in my professional career. Addison has given me the opportunity to learn new things and grow in depth professionally in ways that will shape my career going forward. The HR team that I work alongside is one of the best in the business--that really emphasizes the importance of people first centricity. You won't find a better HR team. The organization is working on some really meaningful stuff--changing lives by connecting clients and candidates to the right opportunities. As an organization, we take pride in our work while embracing a degree of lightheartedness. There is a people-first mentality within the organization that the leadership really does embrace. It's not just a standard slogan. I feel that Addison Group does really focus on making people their priority. It's not uncommon for "recharge days" or "long weekends" to be granted periodically throughout the year to recognize hard work put in and the need to recharge. There is a lot of career advancement opportunity within the organization. As long as you're putting in the work, your accomplishments are recognized verbally and through promotion opportunities.

Cons

The fast-paced environment might not be suited for everyone. Not a con for me, but if others are looking at Addison as a place to join, work is done at high speed to commit and deliver to our clients and candidates. Benefits/Perks/Culture: While the benefits with low deductibles are nice, I don't feel that our premiums are as competitive as they could be with what's offered in the market. From a culture perspective, it would be nice to have periodic time to slow down/connect with your colleagues in a non-work related fashion, in addition to the after hours summer/holiday parties.
