Pros

Not really sure to be honest. Some of the people were nice to work with, that was about it.

Cons

- Pay is a joke. They oversell in the interview and make you believe you will be making a TON of commission but its a lie. They say it takes about a year to start making "really good money" but that's still a lie. You only get 2% of what you bring in and need to stay for years to make somewhat decent commission checks. - No training.. You are just thrown in there and then get in trouble if youre not performing well. - "Market Managers" micromanage. They get promoted and have zero management experience and then hover over everything you do and talk down to you - Micomanaging in general. Ive never worked somewhere where they are all over everyone for EVERYTHING - Managers gossip and talk about people and its uncomfortable. Really cliquey office - Also cheapest company Ive ever worked for

Pros

Decent salary base, probably could be a really good paying job if the job market was better

Cons

Definitely a typical, corporate sales culture where you are defined by your metrics and your metrics only. They are money grabbers, and their commission structure isn't that great. After 2 years you lose 50% of your commission from contractors and they eliminated early release days before holidays. My office started becoming a "bro culture" and the leader was clearly trying to act like "one of the guys" with the males in the office. If your market is slow with reqs, they expect you to reach out to other offices for subs which is hard to do when other offices favor their own teams' recruiters. They'll likely give you a picked over req or one not close to the money that their own team didn't want to work on. I had to reach out to other offices daily to basically beg for a req to work on to hit my metrics. To add to it, the PTO structure for salaried employees is not how they described it when I joined. 17 PTO days total (including sick/personal time btw) and it is actually accrued throughout the year. I had to use PTO for sick time and a vacation, so when I left I had to write them a check for my balance! Talk about a way to really give someone the boot when they're on their way out the door.
