Pros
• Opportunity to work on genuinely interesting and complex roles • Exposure to a variety of industries and projects • Strong, supportive Talent Acquisition team • Collaborative teammates who are willing to help and share knowledge • Positive team culture within TA • Nice Houston office for those who prefer working onsite • Opportunities to contribute to unique projects within the TA team, including process and employer branding work
Cons
• Limited diversity at the senior leadership level, particularly representation of people of color • Inclusion efforts (including ERGs) did not consistently translate into lived experiences • As a person of color, I did not feel consistently valued when interacting with leaders outside of the TA team • No clear or defined career progression path within Talent Acquisition • Compensation is below market for similar roles • Noticeable HR versus TA mentality that created friction rather than partnership • Overall experience can be heavily influenced by alignment with the “right” leaders
