Pros

I had a great team, made good money. I enjoyed the staffing processes of helping candidates grow their careers and find work to pay for their families

Cons

Leadership might as well sit in the clouds, no idea what happens on a day-to-day basis besides reporting. "Change is the only Constant" - not all change is good. Merging teams with zero notice or opinion from respective teams, rolling out half-baked and complicated 'solutions,' ping-pong between strategies. Remote, in office, hybrid - turns out to be remote, shutting down office locations, merging teams who've never met, new clients, and processes with zero guidance from leadership It is the same every day, there is no mission, values or altruism. Just close deals and then be told to do more. How about a meeting every morning where you report the numbers you did the day before, yet the system automatically tracks them. But you have to go around 70 people on a video call just to re-document KPI's. Do you like to do 'power hour' or 'gauntlets' to drive and drive productivity even if it messes up your workflow for the next day / week?

Pros

Decent salary base, probably could be a really good paying job if the job market was better

Cons

Definitely a typical, corporate sales culture where you are defined by your metrics and your metrics only. They are money grabbers, and their commission structure isn't that great. After 2 years you lose 50% of your commission from contractors and they eliminated early release days before holidays. My office started becoming a "bro culture" and the leader was clearly trying to act like "one of the guys" with the males in the office. If your market is slow with reqs, they expect you to reach out to other offices for subs which is hard to do when other offices favor their own teams' recruiters. They'll likely give you a picked over req or one not close to the money that their own team didn't want to work on. I had to reach out to other offices daily to basically beg for a req to work on to hit my metrics. To add to it, the PTO structure for salaried employees is not how they described it when I joined. 17 PTO days total (including sick/personal time btw) and it is actually accrued throughout the year. I had to use PTO for sick time and a vacation, so when I left I had to write them a check for my balance! Talk about a way to really give someone the boot when they're on their way out the door.
