Pros
- Free meals (but only when you're working through lunch - aka taking clients and candidates out to lunch) - There are some great people who work here. The type of people you will stay friends with for life. - Located near the highway (aka you can hop right on I40) - Great happy ours and events. - You won't be sitting at your desk all day long - you'll get to go and meet with candidates and clients onsite. Sometimes it's nice to get out of the office.
Cons
- It's like going back to high school. People will talk about you behind your back, everything is political, and you're constantly being judged. Want to leave at 5:30 to pick up your kid from soccer? Forget it. You must not be working hard enough... - Senior leaders are only looking out for themselves, don't let them fool you otherwise. - Opportunity for growth is only achieved by working 10-12 hours a day, and weekends. - Commission structure is not great at all. - Your title is recruiter, but you are really just in sales (except you're selling people, and that's even harder. If you haven't worked in staffing before, I highly recommend you research that alone (has nothing to do with Piper) - The company isn't really stable. They fire people left and right, with no reason at all, except for "they don't really fit the culture" - aka they just don't like you. - You are only liked if you are producing at a high level. - Do not expect to have a life outside of work. It will not be valued at all.
