Pros

Remote work or local office and good pay (If you're willing to "grind" or get really lucky with a good client)

Cons

They promote free Fridays but many managers expect you to work. So it's really more for show to say they value work life balance The only reason they win best place to work is because they send out an internal survey and we know if we rate well the boss will be happy, and if the boss is happy they have really lavish events They over hired low and mid performers but still want to be seen as a place with no layoffs so every pay cycle a group of people would get let go and a new group would be hired so it looks like it's still growing when they're really letting quite a lot of people go Some managers are quite nice but others are overly cruel. When you start you get assigned to a team so you never know what you're going to get so you might get lucky, but I've seen far too many people get unlucky across different divisions A lot of markets are oversaturated with recruiters and there's quite a bit of in fighting between different teams It is all about the grind even if that comes with a high personal cost

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.
