How flexible is your schedule working at Aquent?

Flexible schedule. I liked where I was placed

Once the contract ended they left me with nothing. No calls, no follow ups. No responses to my emails.

When biz is good, the pay is totally worth it. Freedom to run your desk as you see fit. Flexible hours.

When biz is slow, you dont get paid. The draw is just an advance on your commish and you have to pay it back. Only 40% fee payout which isn't bad, but I'm starting to see other agencies raise their fee % for recruiters.

Good benefits and work flexibility with time off, etc.

After the reorg almost 2 years ago, this company applies broad strategy and general goals to all departments rather than allowing for autonomy and individualism. Currently, all initiatives are based around building AI tools and focusing on DEI practices, rather than pushing for individual sales growth. It feels like we are just all cogs in a wheel with forced common directives that don't contribute to our personal success or commission - all while overall sales have drastically decreased. The company used to be great and allowed for smaller pods of teams to thrive and work as units that encouraged competition and stronger relationship building. This allowed employees to feel more connected to their work, empowered, and excited about working together to create unique strategies and increase sales.

Good beneficts. Including good work life

Nothing as con. All good
