Pros

-There is free coffee -Every 2nd week the company buys bagels for breakfast -We get to use wide screen monitors -Jeans on Fridays

Cons

-Constant micromanagement -No Health Insurance/401K or benefits as an internal employee (Recruiter) -Today's Commissions are paid at the end of the next quarter. I didn't get my first check until after my 5th month -Promised a raise, never happened. -You will be encouraged to work unpaid overtime, however when you miss work and make up the hours you're not paid for it. You are told you are a salaried employee so they don't have to pay OT. However, when you miss hours/days you are hourly. LOL. -Low commissions and base salary. -3 paid Vacation Days a year (Yes, that was not a typo). Anytime you take a day off, you are questioned the next day because they assume you're interviewing. -Expect daily verbal abuse as a recruiter. (That is guaranteed) -Toxic work culture. -You are forced to pay for breakfast for the whole company every 3 months. As a new employee i was stunned, then i just rolled with it. -You are also forced to by co-worker birthday gifts, even if you don't know them. The manager walks around the office shaking you down until you give up the cash. -Management is unprofessional and incompetent.

Pros

I can't think of anything positive.

Cons

GDKN never bothered to contact me nor gave me a means to contact them after they placed me in a position. GDKN lost all my job and financial records, Lost thousands in salary because GDKN never negotiated any salary increases in my behalf. I was under the impression that the my contracted employer didn't provide a raise, but GDKN never inquired about one.

Pros

There really are not many other than the free coffee and company paid breakfast every other week.

Cons

Too many to list but I will mention that the pointless daily meetings were extremely inefficient and took away valuable time from recruiting prospective candidates. Too much gossip and cliques in the office made for a lot of immaturity. You are pressured into purchasing breakfast and contributing to a birthday fund for everyone in the office. Management is a different story. The company's CEO is extremely full of himself, belittles his staff and has one of the worst management styles I have ever seen in my entire career. If you get the vibe that some of these reviews are too good to be true, its because there fake. No one would ever he this excited to work here.
