Penhall Reviews

We'd gone through 6 recruiters in one year. I do feel like burnout happens quickly and you have to be ready to deal with disrespectful managers with a smile on your face. Which can become very old pretty quickly. I don't even think the issue is with leadership on the HR team as it's more of just some of the personalities you have to deal with. It can feel discouraging after time and time, especially knowing that a lot of these salaries are pretty high and you don't feel appreciated for any of the work you do as a recruiter. There's only so much your team can do for you. I do feel that for recruitment the managers will probably respond to men a lot better than women. I hate to say that, but often times in my I time here I'd leave work defeated. The role is almost like sales. The setup of recruitment isn't like other large construction companies who have a system in place and managers who are understanding and adaptable to that system. It's also a much smaller team. Once a year hits that's pretty much it. We also did not get raises, or bonuses which was disappointing because last year this team worked their butts off and we essentially got nothing and no one saw any value.
