Pros

The level of unprofessionalism is unbelievable. You have a room full of adults who can’t communicate, can’t align, and certainly aren’t leading anything. Getting on camera in front of the entire team while visibly strung out is unacceptable. Everyone sees it, and you should be embarrassed. It’s beyond unprofessional — it’s a liability. Use some of your paycheck and get the help you clearly need.

Cons

If you’re going to run a successful business, you need to operate on the same page. Telling someone one thing and then turning around and doing the opposite is unacceptable. It creates instability, discourages employees, and destroys any sense of value or trust in the workplace. No one wants to work in an environment that feels uneasy or unpredictable. You spend far too much time talking and not nearly enough time following through.

Pros

This company is completely disorganized right out of the gate with their management. No clear direction and no true support. Getting on company meetings as a "leader" strung out is very unprofessional. Get a grip when you are presenting on camera. They need to stick with who they have and not bring on real talent that they do not deserve.

Cons

It’s imperative that you remain actively engaged with your team. Disappearing into “travel meetings” and remaining disconnected creates serious blind spots in identifying and securing top talent. By the time you notice, it’s often too late. The growing disconnect between Janou and JP Search is highly evident, and the absence of a unified, authoritative process continues to hinder progress. Choose to work with a company that values your voice, respects the full desk recruiting model, and understands what it takes to build successful teams. Drop the two-faced leadership tactics. They undermine your credibility and damage internal trust. Clear, consistent communication isn’t optional it’s the foundation for results. Expecting miracles without showing up doesn’t work.
