Pros

The only pros I can think of, is I am in final interviews and can't wait to quit.

Cons

You are treated like a second class citizen, no credit for your work. They act like what you do is not important at all, only sales is celebrated when we literally provide 90%+ of the candidates for the sales jobs. They also do not value work like balance. Their PTO packages are literal trash, and when you try to use PTO or Sick time you are interrogated. Each office runs independently and has their own rules and regulations, so a lot of rules are in gray areas. Will get screamed at one day for one action and the next day asking why you no longer do said. It is a very heavy drinking environment and pushed to drink. The founder "RK" is a hot head that acts on emotion and will tell you, with out SEP you would be nothing. I highly advise going to a different company at all costs.

Pros

None. It is obvious that all positive reviews are wrote by management

Cons

This is a bad org to work for. The base compensation BAD and the commission structure is exceptionally poor (5%-10%) with earnings not starting until the 8th or 9th deal. (THIS IS A HUGE RED FLAG, unheard of in the industry). This means Partners are making 100% of your deals until your ninth placement, and even at the Senior level, they still make 90% of your deal. At the agency I am at now, my commission is above 30% and started immediately. basically only hire entry-level people, enforce extreme micromanagement, including multiple daily meetings with your managers, and exhibit an unclear and wishy-washy growth trajectory. I once billed around $500k with this organization in a year and only took home $75k. When I told this to a well-respected recruiter for recruiters, she said at any other agency, I easily would have cleared $200k take-home. There is Nonexistent Work-Life Balance and Poor HR Policies. SEP offers little to no flexibility, and PTO starts at ZERO. It requires PTO to be accrued very slowly, and management forces employees to justify and explain their personal reasons for taking time off. I have had to tell my managers why EXACTLY I needed a day off, which is illegal to ask for. You must also be prepared to be contacted throughout the day if you do take a day off. Even when I was working there, EVERYONE was plotting their escape. My biggest regret in my professional life was accepting a job here, lost so much money.
