Pros

-9/10 day work week -Flexibility - remote work

Cons

The company makes a huge deal about “diversity” but coincidentally every person of color on my team was let go. I watched maybe 6-7 people get fired before it was my turn. They didn’t even give a concrete reason why…. No warning, no performance plan, nothing. Coincidentally it was shortly after I revealed I had a (non visible) disability. So much for diversity! There’s also no job security…. Everyone is constantly on edge because of the frequent firings. Commission structure is not transparent at all and there were times I didn’t receive all the commission I was owed. The training is also not great and I suspect this is why they prefer to hire people with experience. There is extreme favouritism and honestly getting let go was the best thing that ever happened to me! I received another offer shortly after with higher pay at a company that’s a way better fit. I can’t imagine how those who weren’t so lucky dealt with being fired. Stay away from this company if you can! Everything they promise is truly too good to be true. Pay is better elsewhere anyways!

Thank you for your note, and based on your request, we won’t ask you to reach out to HR or our leaders. For context, we are deeply committed to diversity and inclusion, including race, religion, gender and sexual identity, ability and disability, both visible and invisible – and in no way would any parting with an employee be based on race as you suggest, or on revealing a disability. This is unreasonable. If you discussed requiring an accommodation, we would have gone to great lengths to provide a plan and supports. Any parting with an employee would include a significant performance development plan, and many discussions as we did with you. We have a process for performance coaching and goals would have been established. As you know, the tenure of a majority of our teams is extensive. Despite many conversations and written emails that occurred, parting ways can sometimes feel painful. We felt that we invested significantly in your professional growth, and are disappointed that our efforts didn’t resonate with you. If you were concerned with your earnings, we trust that you raised the issue. If you believe you are owed a commission that was unpaid, this is essential that you reach out – you can email payroll and they will help you. Any error, if there is one, would be addressed promptly. We’re very happy for you that you have found a new role, and this will be exciting to begin a new chapter. Despite this review, we are in support of you in any way going forward – and wish you the best.

Pros

Altis is honestly one of those rare places where the culture isn’t just something they talk about, it’s something you feel every day. The people are kind, supportive, and genuinely invested in each other’s success. Leadership puts a lot of thought into every decision, and it shows. You never feel like “just an employee”, they really do care about you as a person, your growth, and your goals. There’s always change happening, but it comes from a genuine desire to improve and evolve. The pace is quick, but that's the exciting part - you know the company is always trying to level up. What I love most is the balance: yes, there are goals to hit, but it never feels like numbers come before people. Instead, you’re encouraged to succeed while also being supported, appreciated, and given the space to grow. You know your contributions matter, no matter what level you’re at, and that sense of purpose makes it easy to stay engaged and excited about the work.

Cons

Nothing to mention, thank you.

Pros

One of the more reputable recruiting firm. From the first meeting you could really sense they're overall professionalism. The entire recruiting process was thoroughly explained. Having dealt with many recruiters in the past I can safely say they're one of the better ones. Everyone that I've touched based with at Altis was extremely professional in not only providing information, but also providing constant updates to the recruiting process. Definitely would recommend them to any of my colleagues in the industry. Give them a try and I'm sure you'll be blown away by their services.

Cons

Some team members are more responsive than others
