Pros

Hi! You might be looking at the reviews for this company right now because you're considering applying or taking a position here. You were probably recruited by the CEO/COO for an open position as an account manager...well that's because they've lost about 60% of their team in the last couple of months, due to abuse and mistreatment during their time at this company, who have since moved on to bigger and better things. If you see a positive review left below in the past month or so- know that it is most likely management or a former employee they have paid and/or bribed (not an uncommon practice for them) to leave on their company's page. So take it with a grain of salt. I have never worked at a company as dysfunctional, unprofessional, and SO poorly managed, as I did during my time as Game Seven Staffing. Not only can you expect to make upwards of 200-300 cold calls per day (often with no result/payoff), but you can expect to not be given the time of day unless you are willing to suck up to upper management. If that is something you are comfortable doing in order to advance in your career, then by all means, go for it. But if you are a person of integrity who stands up for yourself when you are mistreated- this is not the place for you. Trust me. The upper management of this company (with the exception of one, really awesome manager) are some of the most irresponsible, irrational and inept people I have ever had the displeasure of working for. Pros? I made some really great friends at this company through bonding over our frustrations. So that was a nice outcome :)

Cons

Aside from my frustrations I listed above pretty clearly, I'll also mention: - Low base pay - Don't expect to make any commission for about the first year of working there - Hours are long because it consists of cold calling (they refuse to utilize any other form of outreach) - No clear communication with upper management - "Hybrid work model" they advertise is based on monthly performance reviews that usually about 3ish people per month actually pass (if you don't pass, expect to be onsite 5 days a week) - Unattainable metrics and KPI's (setting you up for failure) - Expect your managers to talk poorly about you to your other colleagues and vice versa - Petty and erratic decision making from people in positions of leadership - critical and objective thinking is not their strong suit

Pros

The agency secured me a good hourly rate

Cons

I didn't experience anything negative. The services provided are minimal, but that's typical of a staffing agency.
