Horrible Company

Pros

You are able to work remotely.

Cons

This is one of the worst companies I have ever worked for. They are horribly mismanaged and you are only treated well if you are in the "inner circle" which mostly consists of people with little industry experience that are in their 30's. Do not even consider working here if you have more than 15 years of experience, you will be extremely disrespected and if you voice a concern, it will be completely ignored. The company relies on only one account and if you are part of that account, you may be successful, but only if you support that one account and are in your 20's or early 30's.

Pros

Massively OVERpaid - seriously, pay was extremely good for agency recruiting with limited experience..take this for what you will, but it is a strong sign the company has no concept of basic financial concepts. Remote environment was okay, but little oversight comes with absolutely no training no matter how much you beg.

Cons

- I had 3 bosses in a year with 0 consistency. - recruiting managers will lie to you during phone screens to get you to come - take each promise from A.L, T.R, C.R, N.D or other interviewers with a grain of salt. For example, they tell you results matter more than metrics. This is a bald face lie. The whole company lives and dies by a performance matrix. I did a deal and was fired the next day due to metrics even after being promised at least a few more weeks. Fired without warning. - Sales people KNOW that the recruiting life here sucks yet allow it to go on - absolutely 0, I mean ZERO training here. I only found out about basic tools after BEGGING to be retrained - company will make legal threats against you for no reason - company is extremely slow to respond to unemployment and passes the buck - they ship you some of the world's worst equipment and then stick you with most of it at the end of your time there - literally, they send you junky Chinese headsets, mice, monitors, and a low end laptop and tell you the only thing to ship back is your laptop. They stick you with their literal ewaste. - recruiting leadership has extremely limited technical knowledge - company leadership depends on A SINGLE client for the absolute super majority of this business. That client goes down , the business is dead in the water. - the benefits are absolutely LAUGHABLE - senior leadership does not take ownership for their decisions - whoever hires you will 100% abandon you when they get their bag

Pros

There is nothing good to say about this company. They are horrible BEWARE

Cons

this is by far the worst company I have ever worked for. Horrible company culture. For a recruiting firm there isn’t an HR department. No leadership. The worst CEO I have ever worked under in my entire life.
