Terrible company to work with

Pros

Nothing positive to say about the company.

Cons

I wish I never got involved with this company, I've had an absolute horrible experience in dealing with them in all aspects of the recruitment and employment process after they initially contacted me to offer a position after finding my resume. As a recruiting agency, they are supposed to represent their employees, and that is completely not the case. Dealing with them just made the process much more difficult. I have not been paid on time, have been asked to take some shady financial actions, and even have been threatened by them. Would never recommend Marcum to anyone and was advised to report them for unethical practices.

Pros

Convenient location and nice office space.

Cons

I will be shocked if Marcum Search still exists in 3 years. The smartest thing Marcum LLP could do as an organization is to separate themselves completely from this wanna be staffing firm that has a terrible reputation in the community. If you are looking to be a recruiter or director (same thing at Marcum you can choose your title) do yourself a favor and look somewhere else. Do not be lured by false advertisement, it's all lies. They make no money, they have little to no business, they are unprofessional and will lie directly to clients in order to make a buck. I was absolutely mortified by some of the things I witnessed while I was there. Do yourself a favor...just don't. Read the reviews and find another company to recruit for. The environment here is toxic and not conducive to making money.

Pros

There aren't any pros, I wish I could give one...maybe that the team takes shots in the middle of the work day?

Cons

EVERYTHING. This place is a complete joke. The managers don't know how to run the business, they don't give any goals, guidance, nothing. I'm not even sure what the managers do all day, just make an override on everyone else? This place is a revolving door and is so behind the times. There are minimal resources to help you do your job, a shared Careerbuilder account and a shared Monster account for ALL of Marcum Search, something like 2 or 3 log ins for each job board. The applicant tracking system is so outdated and SLOW. They hate to invest money to make money. Consistent issues with commission statements, money going to other recruiters instead of the recruiter the money should have gone to. They pay on a draw and will hire anyone, pretty much throw you into the job and say good luck and never pay attention to you again.
