      Pros

      Money is good. It has to be to get people in the door there. Great team members to work with. Would be a great place to work if not for management.

      Cons

      Tons of turnover in the Columbia, MD office. Losing a lot of good talented people. Most of them left due to management in that office. Multiple people have given feedback to leadership about this, but seem to do nothing about it. As long as the numbers are good they think he must be doing well. What they don't see is him using fear to motivate people and put them down. I've witnessed scream at employees, put them down and make fun of their appearance. This manager is totally unstable, yet leadership allows this to continue to happen. If you don't come in and close business immediately you'll be looked at as a bad hire. They'll do nothing to help you get up and going. They've also made a strong effort to increase their ratings on Glassdoor by pushing current employees to leave positive feedback. If you look back at earlier reviews you'll see why.

      Pros

      • Great peers who make the workday enjoyable • Leadership has been investing in change, including a new CEO bringing fresh direction • High performers are given flexibility and trust • Exposure to federal contracting and IT staffing, which builds unique industry knowledge • Opportunity to make strong money if you’re willing to grind Additional Context for Job Seekers A lot of negative reviews you’ll see here are from consultants or project-side employees, and those experiences don’t always reflect what it’s like to be in sales or recruiting. If you’re interviewing for an Associate Account Manager, Account Manager, or Recruiting role, read those reviews with caution. This is sales. It’s hard, it’s metrics-driven, and it’s not for everyone. But if you’re motivated, competitive, and want to learn how staffing works, you can do well here.

      Cons

      • Like most sales orgs, if you’re not producing you’ll feel the pressure • Constant monitoring of numbers can be draining • Staffing is a tough industry, and AI is making it even tougher. Not every hiring manager values what you bring • Frequent change in direction creates uncertainty at times
