Svantaggi
This company is a revolving door of recruiters and after working here, I don't blame anyone who left. They are looking for experienced recruiters to turn over their book of business to them, but since few would do so on 100% commission, inexperienced and ill-qualified recruiters are hired instead. They subsequently quit or are forced out within a few months, wasting everyone's time. This essentially ensures mediocrity and prevents any teamwork or synergy from being built. The main problem as I see it lies in the condescenion and paranoia of the higher-ups: management often acts irrationally suspicious, frequently belittling, berating and falsely accusing those beneath them without taking the time to properly assess a situation. Ironically, in many cases, the management was at fault due to their fickleness, lack of communication skills and ill-conveyed policies. As a result, everyone is focused on staying on the good side of the boss rather than producing results. Everything that was sold to me as an asset to work here turned out to be greatly exaggerated or false. Their database- what they promote as their advantage to other search firms- is outdated and unsearchable. I was told they had plenty of searches, but most of these turned out to be unviable if not nonexistent. If you can get past being treated like a child, you may do well here. You can run your own desk and have some degree of freedom. But at the end, I was severely disappointed in how unprofessionally the company treated their own employees.
