Pros

You work remotely - if that's even considered to be a pro here. You can make a decent amount of money but at the expense of any social life you have.

Cons

Everything imaginable. Base salary is 36k draw, so has to be paid back by producing. They deduct $300 from each paycheck to pay for "tools." And if you're lucky, you start at 30% commission. Ridiculously high fee with a ridiculously low guarantee period (depending on the industry), so good luck getting clients when every single competitor charges lower fees and offers longer guaranteed periods. But if you don't get any new clients, it's because you're not working hard enough. They will throw you into a state drawn from a hat, while other recruiters are praised because they produce maybe $400k across half of the U.S. So there is no room for growth. They are greedy and they have favorites. They do not care about you whatsoever. You could tell them your house burned down and they'd say "Take your mind off it by drowning yourself in phone calls and sifting through 8,000 resumes." They expect you to work all night every night. Bunch of hypocrites.

Not that great

Pros

Coworkers (NOT coaches/management) are good. WFH. Technology/apps/software are easy to understand. The actual act of making cold calls or sending bulks isn’t that difficult. Plus I’m sure there’s good earning potential… if you sell your soul and are one of the higher-up’s favorites.

Cons

Churn and burn environment. Yes it’s easy to get a job, but the job itself isn’t easy and they’ll let you go without hesitation. While it’s not too difficult to make calls or send emails/InMails, KPIs are CRAZY. Not to mention you have to market fake candidates and post fake jobs just to farm potential candidates and clients. It’s not right. Most people who are managers here have no idea how brutal the job market is right now or what it’s like to be unemployed. So thus they don’t care about the fact that we’re lying to and preying on candidates who are desperate for work, and also preying on clients who are desperate for employees. It’s not just awful for people who work here but also for our clients who we LIE to. Plus the fee is CRAZY. Yes it’s remote across the US but most of the "coaches" and "managers" are people who have ties to the headquarters/founders. lots of nepotism and favoritism who went to HS/college/grew up together. I am not talking about referrals here, but rather how people get promoted just for being close with the founders or managers. Management is a joke, training is awful and they won't tell you ANYTHING yet they'll still micromanage to make sure you're hitting 60-100 calls a day. there is no room for mistakes. i've seen co workers get fired over email/text/phone. I understand it's a remote environment, but considering we have 2-3 hours of meetings each day, you think this company would at least have the decency to let you go through video call. I'm applying to other jobs right now, but if you work here and are considering the same, be careful — Don't forget about the stupid non-compete. You won't be able to recruit anywhere else, even internally, for two years from your departure date.

Pros

-The ability to work remotely -Some really good people there -If produce at least $200,000 a year then life at gpac is fairly relaxed (about 10% of employees bill that or more)

Cons

-Extreme micro-management -They take the majority of your commissions -They threaten you with being fired -The terms of their agreement are are not even close to the market average making is extremely difficult for companies to want to partner with you -They will hire just about anyone with a pulse just to fire them a month later (They hired 80 people one month, but lost 75 people that same month) -Your success is largely dependent on the industry you're in and who your coach is -They tell you to put up fake job postings just to keep candidates flowing into your pipeline -Pray that you never have to take a deal to collections because you will never see that money. Even if you do get it, the lawyer takes 1/3 of it -Lots of pointless meetings that add no value
