Pros

Having a job. Learned many things. To protect my identity, I'm hesitant to say when I may have worked (or still work there). If these positive comments are true, I guarantee they were made maybe by one of the people the recruiters hired, NOT someone working in the office.

Cons

Job was outsourced to Guyana. Forced to buy breakfast for the office. Forced to donate to birthday fund. Owner LOVES to hear himself talk, and will ramble on for HOURS in the daily meetings. Your input is belittled. The offshore team (India) got all their public holidays off, but Stateside, we had to work most of ours. Family culture is encouraged, yet they want you to "rat" out other employees. Owner is quite pompous, EXTREMELY egotistical and self-centered. Encouraged (forced) to work overtime without the pay. They tell you you're salary, yet pay you hourly. Encouraged (forced) to work on the weekends from home. If you don't score well on your "review", you are penalized, and they deduct money from your commission checks.

Pros

-There is free coffee -Every 2nd week the company buys bagels for breakfast -We get to use wide screen monitors -Jeans on Fridays

Cons

-Constant micromanagement -No Health Insurance/401K or benefits as an internal employee (Recruiter) -Today's Commissions are paid at the end of the next quarter. I didn't get my first check until after my 5th month -Promised a raise, never happened. -You will be encouraged to work unpaid overtime, however when you miss work and make up the hours you're not paid for it. You are told you are a salaried employee so they don't have to pay OT. However, when you miss hours/days you are hourly. LOL. -Low commissions and base salary. -3 paid Vacation Days a year (Yes, that was not a typo). Anytime you take a day off, you are questioned the next day because they assume you're interviewing. -Expect daily verbal abuse as a recruiter. (That is guaranteed) -Toxic work culture. -You are forced to pay for breakfast for the whole company every 3 months. As a new employee i was stunned, then i just rolled with it. -You are also forced to by co-worker birthday gifts, even if you don't know them. The manager walks around the office shaking you down until you give up the cash. -Management is unprofessional and incompetent.
