Pros

You get to connect with people and help them grow

Cons

You work a full shadow day without getting paid. They make you explain an entire background check even if everything you have was dismissed. They are not very professional amd their bonus structure sucks. CEO also claims to be a Christian, but is very vindictive and rude.

It was disappointing that we could not move forward with the hiring of this individual and this review confirms we made the right decision. He was belligerent regarding the issues revealed on his background check. We would not have invited him to shadow to see what the job and environment were like if we knew he would not pass the background check. We did buy him lunch and tried to help him understand our decision was not based on him as a human being, but our policies.

Pros

CEO is approachable and committed to the team and empowers them to excel and grow. The compensation package is competitive. . This organization stands out from typical recruiting firms by offering a trademarked career coaching and matchmaking process, effectively connecting candidates with clients. There is a well-defined structure in place that provides opportunities for advancement, accompanied by salary increases. Additionally, the firm offers an excellent benefits package that further enhances employee satisfaction and well-being.

Cons

To effectively scale the business and meet the growing demands of clients, additional team members with the right qualifications are needed. It's important to note that remote work is not currently part of the company culture. However, turning this con into a pro, this in-office approach encourages stronger relationships among team members and facilitates more effective communication.

Pros

A nice office space and building.

Cons

I used to work here where the CEO's attitude left much to be desired. The CEO appeared to believe that anyone who hadn't worked in the construction field was beneath her, as if we were all idiots. Her presence in the office was like a dark cloud, with an aura of belittlement for everyone in her path. One glaring issue at this company was the lack of genuine positive reviews. The only ones you'll find here were written in pairs years ago because employees were coerced into taking time out of their workday to fill them out. It was mandated, making it feel insincere and forced. Freedom of speech and thought was practically non-existent. You were expected to agree with the CEO without question. Period. Any dissenting opinions were met with resistance and reprimand. The work environment was toxic. Disrespect, condescension, and micromanagement were common occurrences. It was demoralizing to say the least. The turnover rate at this company was staggering. Most people didn't realize how bad it was during the interview process. It was only after starting that they discovered the harsh reality of working there. Lastly, the company's outdated mentality of "dial and dial" as the path to success in this industry, a major hindrance. The CEO's adherence to outdated methods was frustrating, and it hindered progress and use of better methods. Overall, my experience at this company was deeply disappointing, and I would caution anyone considering a job there to think twice.

Hello, This is the CEO of the company, Suzanne Breistol, and although I do not know who wrote this, it is disheartening. Nobody at this company is coerced to do anything and you are more than welcome to call any of our employees to ask how they like working here by calling our main number at 305-361-0094. We have narrowed this review down to a past employee or two that we chose to part ways with and they were not happy with our decision. We needed to do so as their attitude was as it reads above. If they were here for 1-2 years then we did give them opportune time to learn the business, the industry we serve and do the job they were hired to do. I do hope this individual has found a place of employment that meets their expectations. We are pleased that today we have openings only due to growth and scaling and we are celebrating the receipt of our registered trademark for the proven process my team and I have worked to develop over the years. Not sure as to the comment about the reviews written in pairs, as I myself, just saw this and so it is possible my team did this to shine favor on the place they chose to work.
