An extraordinary place to build a career

Professional recruiter

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Unique and immediate access to all levels of leadership (if you assert yourself and seek it out). - Great opportunity for high income, which expands the longer you stay and hone your craft. - A deep sense of community within local offices. Coworkers are truly friends with one another and support each others' successes. - Excellent training programs for both recruiters and account executives. - A wonderfully kind, sincere, and trusting workplace culture.

Cons

The only current drawback is one that applies to many growing companies. There are currently many qualified top producers who are motivated by stepping into leadership capacities, without enough such roles to go around. While this is unavoidable to a degree, I would encourage company leadership to open up more "partial" leadership positions that allow top producers to continue working as individual contributors while scratching that leadership itch and feeling more involved in the company's strategic direction.
