Recruiters are used car salesmen, they run fake ads to bolster the talent pool (when no such job order exists), they are merely submitters....hoping and praying that 1 of the 75 people they submitted to the employer is liked and gets an interview. No one has the courage to tell the employer, look this guy/gal has it all, they are all just wimps afraid to upset an employer. They will promise you the moon, then never touch base to tell you that the employer didn't like you. Basically, they are all just quota driven snake oil used car hustlers...but that is true of most agency environments, so beware!

BENEFITS: WORTHY OF 1975 - no PTO (15 UNPAID days allowed per year), no paid holidays for the first year but still forced to take the day off UNPAID, it messes with people's income, especially during this inflation!!! health insurance cost (with 1 dependent) amounts to one week of pay, absolutely RIDICULOUS seeing how the salary is barely livable as it is, $650/mo for insurance is INSANE. ONBOARDING: an absolute mess, I was given my start date and then absolute silence, EVEN ON THE START DAY. I spent the first week in the dark as to what to do, who to reach out to, I had to proactively contact someone to know my day to day schedule and week schedule. They did not disclose at any point of the hiring process that my employment was at the mercy of passing a TEST after training. DAY to DAY: tracked productivity, clock-in/out system, platforms and device provided feel pretty archaic, okay work. Another surprise is that you never know who your manager is, really hard to know who to reach if you have an issue or an unexpected sick day. Typical old-fashion mindset of expecting high integrity and dedication from employees while providing 0 benefits and low salary. OK as a second job, very manageable.
