Pros

Lots of training and exposure to recruiting. Really great first job out of college if you want to do sales. Great base pay plus commission.

Cons

Commission can drop very easily. Lots of high volume cold calling. Everyone there wants to get into sales and not recruiting careers. Really long hours. Expect to work 60 hours a week.

Pros

The culture is strong and the people are great

Cons

Unless you are in sales or recruiting the compensation is very poor. That pride themselves on paying within the 50 percentile, but their comp analysis do not support the actual work individual do to be accurate. The sales and recruiting teams have been performing well under expectations, making it impossible for anyone who doesn't qualifys for commission (non revenue generating employees) get a raise. The company is also extremely flat, so it is almost impossible to have a defined career path. Where there is a defined path the spots are extremely limited so upwards mobility is next to impossible.

Pros

You'll learn how important it is to know what drives someone to reach their goals, especially your closest colleagues. That is something I've taken with me as I've moved on from TEK.

Cons

I worked in an office where the politics and turnover were high, HR was nowhere to be found, and poor leadership. Anyone higher than a recruiter wanted nothing to do with you unless you were going to make them money, so don't expect too much "relationship building" until that has happened. Someone left the company every two weeks which looked bad internally and externally. Consultants/contractors had some new junior recruiter calling them every month to have the same conversation over and over again because the last recruiter quit. There were many, many non-HR-friendly conversations happening daily, but no one was around to censor anything. Leadership doesn't appreciate any type of strategic thinking or creativity. "Hard work" was only found in a high number of dials and face time.
