Pros

Very toxic and unstable work environment that was not inclusive

Cons

This company suffers from a serious lack of diversity. If you look a certain way and laugh at inappropriate jokes you might do well here even if you don't produce. It's a popularity contest where the managers are bullies and make inappropriate comments/jokes. There is no leadership and the managers will not provide you the tools to be successful and they will talk about you behind your back. This place is a revolving door with most people lasting 3-6 months max. They will steal commissions and clients and then show you the door. Certain people are given special treatment (handed clients/placements) while others get chastised publicly for not closing deals when there are no jobs available.
