Pros

Great Hourly Pay, but was exchanged for no benefits On some matters they are responsive quickly Fast Interview, Quick Placement Polite and Courteous Never a problem getting paid

Cons

My recruiter was a bit misleading about the non-compete cause , although Sunbelt acknowledged this was "unfortunate" they did nothing about it. His exact words were "It's no big deal....happens all the time." No big deal is a very large fee exceeding $18,000 for the district if they want to keep you. If you are placed by Sunbelt, be aware that you cannot work for your placement for a year following the end of the contract without the school district paying a LARGE fee.....like nearly 40% of your annual salary. They won't waive it, no matter what. I performed excellent, nearly every teacher I worked with wrote to HR of the district asking them to keep me.....my principal wanted to keep me, my HR department wanted to keep me. I was told the ONLY reason I was not hired for the job was the HUGE fee they would have to pay. My district simply couldn't afford it. I tried to engage Sunbelt multiple times on it, the VP refused to speak with me at all, and they basically didn't care about me, the students I was bonded with or advancing my career.

Pros

A good entry-level role for recent college graduates looking to gain professional sales experience, build communication skills, and develop a strong foundation for their careers.

Cons

The pay and commission structure are major concerns. There is a noticeable culture of favoritism, and management lacks accountability. Expectations vary depending on whether management sees you as someone they want to promote, creating an unfair and inconsistent work environment. Managers set standards that they don't consistently enforce, and employees are often encouraged to compete against their coworkers rather than work as a team. A recurring pattern is that employees who are initially identified as future management candidates often become frustrated with the inconsistent treatment and leave within a year. When they leave, management frequently shifts its attention to someone else who had previously been overlooked, only to repeat the same cycle. This obvious favoritism creates resentment, hurts morale, and contributes to the company's high turnover.
