Pros

Good benefits I guess, lacking in PTO though

Cons

Poor and homogenized training, made worse by condescending corporate trainers Disconnected culture Inexperienced management that clearly has not had any training on modern sales tactics or tools Horrific salesforce set up, utter lack of tools outside of antiquated SF (prospecting out of SF is hell on earth) The worst of all is after an overly rigorous interview process, they hire inordinately large classes and train them all virtually (across the country), this leads to gross neglect of the individual and poor cohesion within regional teams They ended up firing about 75% of my training class by month 4. By month 6 most of us quit. Run away unless you just want to collect a check for a few months

Pros

The team was one of the strongest aspects of the organization, with many supportive and hardworking colleagues. PTO and time-off benefits were competitive, including occasional early-release days and additional time-off opportunities throughout the year.

Cons

The company culture has significantly declined in recent years, leading to lower employee morale and engagement. Micromanagement became increasingly common, while transparency and trust diminished. Although remote work was heavily promoted, there has been a shift toward a hybrid/in-office model. Office conditions often created challenges, including recurring maintenance issues and an open floor plan that made it difficult to focus and conduct private conversations or meetings. Compensation has not remained competitive with market expectations, making it increasingly difficult for employees to achieve strong earnings. Comparable staffing firms in the industry often offer higher compensation while providing similar benefits and time-off programs. As a result, retaining experienced recruiters and top performers has become increasingly challenging. Work-life balance also suffered due to the pressure of meeting KPIs and performance metrics, often requiring work outside of normal business hours to remain competitive and meet expectations. Employee engagement initiatives and team-building activities that once contributed to a positive environment have largely disappeared. There has also been noticeable turnover among tenured employees and top performers, raising concerns about retention and overall organizational direction.
