Pros

If you are looking for a fraternity to make friends and share some good laughs with, go ahead and work here. Trust me, it will be fun for a few months and then your life will become a living nightmare professionally.

Cons

The leadership they recently put in place is garbage. They have no experience managing others and lack basic management skills. Just look at the turnover rate at this office...they are always hiring new people because they do not invest in the current employees they hire! Seriously, look at their LinkedIn Talent Acquisition or job boards...alwaysss hiring new sales/recruiters. IF you are desperate for a job, by all means use Kforce NJ as a stepping stone temporarily to pay bills but that is all I can suggest.

Pros

Teach brand new recruiters how to recruiter however only through one channel

Cons

This company has a done of ethical issues. Starting from favoritism to sexism. This company wants to say its "better people = better results" their slogan should be unethical business practices lead to awful work environment. If you are friends with Upper management you have it made. No wonder they keep losing top notch people to better firms. As evident by the CDO recently leaving. This company is a joke and hopefully will continue to go down

Pros

- Opportunity to work from home and flexibility with Doctor appts

Cons

Work Life Balance- There is none. Prepare to work from 8:00 a.m. until about 7:00 p.m. You are looked down upon if you leave the office at a normal time. The recruiters were once told “You have nothing better to be doing so you all should be staying late." Management- Micromanaging and clueless. Management does not care about quality, they only care about quantity. If you produce 20 poor candidates you are praised. If you produce 7 quality candidates you are scolded. They stress over and over how it’s all about the NUMBERS. Their mentality is “if you sling enough crap something will stick.” The work environment is extremely negative. If you are not doing well they will fire you instead of helping you to grow and learn. This place is a chop shop. I saw at least 15 people get "let go" over the span of 7 months. They don't believe in trying to better their employees, they just suck what they can out of you and then fire you. Certain Managers play favorites as well. Work environment- Completely Unprofessional. The office is full of college grads who talk about how "wasted" they got the night before. Half of the Account Managers are completely inexperienced and have no idea what they are doing. Most of them have inherited Accounts through the previous people. Management is super strict about lunch as well. They expect you to take lunch at 12:00 noon on the dot. If you take a later lunch you are looked down upon and spoken to. Management is constantly berating their employees that they aren’t doing well enough. You would hear the same negative spiel every week about how no one was doing enough or working hard enough. It was immensely discouraging. Compensation- The “commission” is a joke. If you are lucky you will get $200 dollars a month. When you interview they will sell you claim that you will make at least 70k. They start you off at $42k base so I’m not sure where the 30k in commission is coming from……because it’s not from their comp plan. Overall this was a horrible place to work and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone!
