Cons

- lowball on pay - Delaying conversion, and promotion after the year mark, even though they promise it when hiring

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest and thoughtful feedback. Although we are disappointed to hear of your negative experiences, we are encouraged by your kind words and points of improvement. Here at Brooksource , we strive to break the stigmas associated with our industry by using a relationship-focused approach to managing our consultants. This includes providing our consultants with six recognized holidays, the hosting of culture-building events, access to medical benefits, and even the ability to participate in our 401(k) program. However, as you mentioned, we still need to be better at sharing the testimonials and success stories of our consultants on our social media. We appreciate your insights and will use them to better target our consultant experience efforts moving forward. If you have any additional feedback or suggested improvements, please email us at success@eightelevengroup.com as we are always trying to better ourselves and the experiences we offer.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Here at Brooksource, we strive to break the stigmas associated with our industry by using a relationship-focused approach to managing our consultants. We have found that by focusing on your needs, we can empower you to thrive. All employees, including consultants, are eligible to participate in our 401K plan after one year of employment - if they have worked over 1,000 hours. We even match employee contributions; this match consists of 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next 2% of your contributions. We are disappointed to hear that your experience could have been better, but we are using your feedback to improve!
