Pros

-Salary, though it was a draw -some absolutely amazing people work here -every other Friday off

Cons

Where to start… The company has laid off dozens, if not hundreds, of people in the past months. They expect you to work on vacation (even though they advertise unlimited pto) -the way you “own” a client doesn’t make sense. They will take from some recruiters without a warning, but never from others. - when there is a quarterly event, if you don’t qualify, they still make you watch the awards portion of it. It can be fun, but it’s also a key time where you could be calling others to try to get more business but instead you’re forced to watch a zoom of the event where you can’t hear anything anyways - I enjoyed the team I was on, but I was the only one on the east coast on my entire team. That meant my day started 2 hours before anyone else jumped on, and was finished 2 hours before they were done. As someone who was brand new, that was tough. - the way things were structure in terms of billing was confusing. I wasn’t aware from the start that whatever you bill, only 40% goes to your tower. So every week, you fall further behind than you thought.

Pros

incredible 100% paid benefits and leadership, every other Friday off, truly one of the best organizations I have ever worked for

Cons

None, they keep making decisions to benefit our consultants, clients, and employees overall. I will be here until I retire :)

Pros

Fully remote, full autonomy, free Friday’s, incredible leaders and colleagues, the list goes on. I can’t say enough great things about this company. CEO is a brilliant woman and you’d never know or expect this in a company this size but she knows every single employee by name, whether you’re at the tippity top or barely moving the needle. Jobot is everything it claims to be, plain and simple. When they claim kindness and respect is the foundation of their company, they live by those words.

Cons

This isn’t necessarily a con but this industry is NOT for the weak. It is a grind and then some. If you are not willing to grind and work hard, this is not the job for you.
