Pros

Great base salary. Saw salary increases for other employees during my time there. Good people for the most part. Fun place to work as long as you now the business. Commission scale is good once you have worked there for 2-3 years and built a candidate base...but new recruiters don't last that long. 30-60 minute lunches (your discretion).

Cons

Ridiculous hours (8am-6pm) with no overtime. Lacked in the area of training. Scorned for asking questions. Micromanaging and A LOT of calling required. Young crowd who only discussed the latest sports story. Great place for people who aren't open to outside opinions...or otherwise called "competitive minded".

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.
