Vantaggi

Recruiters are great, but that’s about it.

Svantaggi

Leadership and has no clue whats going on. There are even cliques within leadership — think mean girls. They say you can double your salary with commissions, but that’s a lie. It all depends on which jobs they give you, which depends on favoritism. Additionally, management doesn’t respect workers and constantly gossips about them. There is no transparency and little communication from the top, which bleeds down throughout the organization. People rely on gossip and hearing important things thru the grape vine. Leadership is really out of touch with workers and locks themselves away in their office. They make empty promises and are always pushing for more, even at the cost of quality. The culture is cult like — “drink the kool-aid”. The processes are never ending and the “trainer” is super condescending. There is no teamwork and management turns everything into a competition or “stretch goal”. All of this leads to a toxic work environment with poor leadership.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. I think it's true that we aren't for everyone, but I want to first focus on your first item - our recruiters are great. That's a true statement. While we're a medium sized business, we're fortunate to have great people in every area, and since recruiting is our business, no area is more important than that one. Related to ability to earn, we've got a long track history of providing recruiters with an excellent ability to earn. That's always been consistent. Certain areas can go up and down in certain years based on client mix, but we're proud of what we can provide recruiters. I'm sorry if you didn't have a chance to experience that. On the gossip side of the equation, please look up my title on LinkedIn and reach out - I'd love to hear more. There's no such thing as perfect workplace, but we work hard at routine all-hands meetings to talk about what's going on, recognize great work and more. We'd love to hear more about your specific experiences, so please reach out if you're willing. Most importantly, good luck with your career moving forward.

Vantaggi

- Collaborative coworkers - Work life balance was good

Svantaggi

- Yearly layoffs are common - Some leadership relationships created a perception of conflict of interest. For example, close family members of the upper management are working in recruiting and operations which sometimes made employees hesitant to raise concerns or give candid feedback. Also created a feeling of double standards when It comes to delegating work - Transparency around hiring and internal opportunities could be improved

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We want to clarify that yearly layoffs are not common at our organization. 2024 was an anomaly driven by unique business circumstances, and it was an extremely difficult decision. Layoffs are never easy, and one thing we are proud of is how many boomerang employees we have welcomed back over the years. During the 2024 restructuring, our goal was to bring back as many team members as possible when opportunities reopened. As we hire, it will always be based on the needs of the organization and the requirements of each role at that specific time. Ultimately, hiring decisions depend on what the company needs to move forward. Thank you again for your transparency. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any other concerns.
