Pros

Young team to talk to at least, some flexibility, willing to teach you the skills like time management, recruitment, and basic things under pressure.

Cons

Absolute garbage skills long term and tech stack, outdated expert network company. You never talk to a client at all you read a blurb in an outdated CRM, and talk to multiple project managers to learn about the client. So its not dealing with people to recruit, its praying that your client gets back to your project manager or cares about the project/rate the advisors are asking for. These idiots dont even have autodialers so expect you to be manually going in to call. They now have designated days they want you to work from office which kills the flexibility, and the job is meant for the project managers with associates fighting for scraps for their numbers since they dont care about anything except one number. The companies performance is not good right now, so they will squeeze all they can out of you. So use this job as only a stepping stone into another job thats worth it, you can learn everything in like 2-3 months. Such a garbage company I know the economy is bad but only take this as a last resort or if you have another plan in place for another job. Miserable job, miserable place. Maybe your team is good and mature so that helps but DO NOT pour yourself into this job its just not a good environment for genuinely talented people, its meant to drain you of everything for cheap clients that have their own issues you have no control over. So two bottlenecks - your experts which you communicate with based off of what a client says you never speak to based off what your project manager negotiates. Such a garbage job.

Pros

- Good pay for entry- level roles - Guaranteed promotion IF you meet all the expected goals - You get to learn about various industries

Cons

- Given that most of the leads have been in the company for several years, they tend to be very cliquey and don’t really bother getting to know the Associates. - Some managers (white) often favor white employees over BIPOC workers. Either giving them more projects or by simply interacting with them more. - Some managers either micro-manages you or does not bother to check in with you. - Some managers rely on fear tactic - Benefits aren’t that great. Pretty expensive for a global company - If you don’t like to be treated as a number then this is not a good place for you
