Pros
DW Simpson has been a great place to work. This is a smaller company, so it's easy to get to know and enjoy working with all colleagues. The work is fast-paced and can be very rewarding. There is a great deal of flexibility to structure your day as you see fit and be creative.
Cons
This is recruiting and dealing with people. Sometimes things just don't work out like you thought they might, and those moments can be frustrating.

Recruiting is not for everyone, but it can be fun and pay well for the right people.

Pros
Commission based salary lets you work hard to increase your take home pay, instead of getting a flat yearly raise. Some really great people work here, and you get to interact with clients/candidates that are interesting and highly intelligent. Nice office, but I think they’ve since moved.
Cons
Owner & management seemed disconnected from the day to day operations, and decision making often seemed kind of erratic. There’s also a family & friends clique type vibe that may keep others from advancing. Work events revolve around heavy drinking which can lead to awkward situations as a woman.
