Pros

Good for someone green. The best decision I made was to leave this company.

Cons

No work life balance, low pay, demanding clients and managers, the work environment is toxic and competitive even though you don’t get paid commission. They’re are way too many requisitions per recruiter. The jobs you recruit for are mainly temporary light industrial jobs that are very low pay. The recruiters are responsible for managing everything from sourcing candidates, interviewing, running backgrounds and payroll. Not to mention managing the accounts and ensuring billing is done correctly. The salary doesn’t align with the job duties. Some of their clients are very unorganized and unprofessional. Some clients do not submit hour’s correctly so you are forced to show up to the company and ask for time sheets.

Pros

There are strong individual contributors across the organization who genuinely care about their clients and candidates. The business itself has market opportunity, especially in industrial staffing, and there is potential to build something meaningful with the right strategy and execution.

Cons

Leadership lacks alignment between stated goals and actual execution. There is a clear disconnect between the vision communicated during hiring and the day-to-day expectations in role. In some instances, employees are placed in situations where they are asked to engage in practices that raise ethical and, at times, legal concerns. This creates an uncomfortable and high-risk working environment, particularly for those who prioritize compliance and professional integrity. Despite discussions around evolving the business toward higher-margin, relationship-driven growth, the operating model continues to default back to transactional “fill and bill” activity. Efforts to introduce more strategic structure, improve efficiency, and modernize workflows are often dismissed or labeled as unnecessary. There is also inconsistency in how policies and code of conduct are applied, which creates a perception of unfair and selective enforcement. This impacts trust, morale, and overall team performance. Additionally, there is an over-reliance on outdated sales approaches that do not reflect how modern workforce solutions are built or sustained in today’s market.
