Pros

Pro - Remote office. I didn't have to step into an actual office with these lunatics. Also, it's easier to get a job when you have one. Thanks for that as well.

Cons

Everything. New Colleague Training was a joke. Unbelievably wasteful hiring practice of bringing 30 or so new hires on and having them stressed-out everyday for a few months, hitting silly metrics, while you fire people left and right. Why not slow down and hire people who fit, then educate them and help them grow? I met some sweet people in training, but managers, trainers, leaders were all useless. We don't care that you went to Spain for a jog, head of training, we're miserable and worred about being fired for no true reason. Staffing ebbs and flows with the market. This is the worst time to be in staffing since 2008. Just a bad choice. Take this job if you're desperate, put in some effort and find a new gig asap.

Pros

The team was one of the strongest aspects of the organization, with many supportive and hardworking colleagues. PTO and time-off benefits were competitive, including occasional early-release days and additional time-off opportunities throughout the year.

Cons

The company culture has significantly declined in recent years, leading to lower employee morale and engagement. Micromanagement became increasingly common, while transparency and trust diminished. Although remote work was heavily promoted, there has been a shift toward a hybrid/in-office model. Office conditions often created challenges, including recurring maintenance issues and an open floor plan that made it difficult to focus and conduct private conversations or meetings. Compensation has not remained competitive with market expectations, making it increasingly difficult for employees to achieve strong earnings. Comparable staffing firms in the industry often offer higher compensation while providing similar benefits and time-off programs. As a result, retaining experienced recruiters and top performers has become increasingly challenging. Work-life balance also suffered due to the pressure of meeting KPIs and performance metrics, often requiring work outside of normal business hours to remain competitive and meet expectations. Employee engagement initiatives and team-building activities that once contributed to a positive environment have largely disappeared. There has also been noticeable turnover among tenured employees and top performers, raising concerns about retention and overall organizational direction.
