      Pros

      1. Most of the people working there were nice. @. Can't think of anything else.

      Cons

      1. Ridiculous schedules. Some days they wanted you to do 28 lawns and gave you 15 minutes to do a lawn and get to the next stop. 2. Dragging hundreds of feet of hose up hills around lawn furniture and pools and whatever else happened to be there. 3. Total grunt work using broken equipment and outdated trucks. 4. Came home covered in herbicides and whatever. 5 Seriously, this was the worst job of my life. I lasted 4 weeks and halfway thru the last day I drove the truck back and handed the manager the keys and told him I quit. 6. Almost forgot, my feet were bloody and blistered every day.

      Pros

      • Fully remote recruiting role with exposure to high-volume talent acquisition • Opportunity to build sourcing pipelines quickly and strengthen candidate screening efficiency • Experience working with Workday, HireRight, and multi-location hiring teams • Fast-paced environment that builds time management and scheduling discipline

      Cons

      • Extremely high-volume recruiting environment where recruiters are responsible for full-cycle ownership, including post-offer follow-up, with limited operational support. Compensation for recruiters does not consistently align with workload expectations • Interview expectations and documentation practices can vary across team members, creating inconsistencies in candidate tracking and communication • Limited visibility into candidate status when documentation is incomplete or not consistently maintained across recruiters • Significant calendar congestion due to overlapping interviews and multi-location scheduling, which can impact organization and efficiency • Hiring leaders occasionally join candidate calls without prior alignment, which can disrupt the interview flow • Many roles involve physically demanding outdoor work with high daily production expectations, which can make sourcing and conversion more challenging. Compensation for these roles may not always align with market expectations
