Pros

One of the only recruiting agencies that is open and honest to candidates. Talascend actually cares about their candidates which is extremely rare in the staffing world. Most places only care about numbers and metrics. You typically don't ever hear back from a recruiter if the company is not interested. Talascend works with candidate to find the RIGHT job for them. Highly demanding environment, but still a fun place. Great bonus structure and incentives.

Cons

Needs better medical benefits and work/life balance. Should start offering work from home as an option. Industry is absolutely trending that way and will be the norm in the next couple of years. Most companies are already well ahead of the curve on that. Would definitely boost moral and company wide performance

Pros

The #1 benefit of working at Talascend is the people. It's hard to come by an office you can truly feel comfortable with. It's a fun environment and there is plenty of structure and processes to keep the business moving. When you start there, you will feel welcomed. There is also some work-life balance/flexibility with hours worked. Most employees are very kind and helpful.

Cons

The cons are: lack performance reviews/career pathing. Benefits are also pricey. Some of management is outstanding and some not so much.
