Seems promising, but don't be deceived - very disappointing to work here - Anonymous employee Lynx Employee Review

Most of our hires are entry-level and it’s hard to know if they’ll like recruiting, or if they’ll be good at it. High-level technology recruiting and placement is a demanding and complex sales career which requires superior relationship-building skills, drive, and sustained hard work. Everyone we've hired has been bright and personable, but brought very little real-world experience to the table in terms of sales, recruiting, or technology. Some of them “got” this business quickly and succeeded, but many did not in spite of our best efforts. This is the reality of the recruiting business at Lynx and everywhere. We're small and as a result everyone here has a voice. We've learned and evolved and have improved the way we interview people, and the ways we plan to develop them over the early months of their careers here. We are also actively improving our compensation structure to be more competitive. We have huge demand for our services, and much opportunity is here for the right people. Training has been a priority for us, especially where entry-level hires are so key here. We expend a great deal of effort, time, and expense to bring new people up to speed. Not only do we do our own in-house training, but mentoring opportunities from very seasoned people are available. Career development and promotion is readily available here, but it’s not going to be handed to you. Several entry level recruiters hired within the last couple of years were promoted to running their own placement desks with unlimited upside financial potential. Other individuals have been given the opportunity to lead a team and build new business areas. We have great track records and enormous credibility in the Boston hitech community, and will gladly share our hard-earned experience and recruiting wisdom, as well as give you access to our broad and deep network of relationships that have been cultivated over the last twenty-five years. We've always felt that it’s important to have financial stability, and our company has succeeded for over two decades, through three major recessions, without ever having to miss a payroll or delay paying a commission or a bill because of cash flow, and even though we’re small, we offer high-quality medical and dental benefits and state-of-the-art tools.. So, yes, we do have old furniture … in fact, we bought most of it used from companies that over-reached and went out of business.
