Pros

Lied about my location for privacy Senior Management is wonderful and it’s the first company I’ve ever worked for that seems to genuinely CARE about their employees. I LOVE MY JOB.

Cons

My BOM is great, nice, and a good friend. But I don’t feel adequately trained and it’s effecting my performance. Our numbers have dropped significantly and it doesn’t look like they will be improving any time soon. My manager calls off work every other day or leaves early any chance she gets or takes personal calls every day.. I’m not one for confrontation and I know they probably have things to say about me as well. I feel bad having to ask the same questions over and over but she goes too fast when explaining things and then when I do learn them I never get to apply them because our branch is SO slow. It could be a month before I ever apply what I “learned”. Everyone is great- but these last few months it feels like I’m having to fight for my job. Everything feels dumped on me and I don’t know what I’m doing.

Pros

There are strong individual contributors across the organization who genuinely care about their clients and candidates. The business itself has market opportunity, especially in industrial staffing, and there is potential to build something meaningful with the right strategy and execution.

Cons

Leadership lacks alignment between stated goals and actual execution. There is a clear disconnect between the vision communicated during hiring and the day-to-day expectations in role. In some instances, employees are placed in situations where they are asked to engage in practices that raise ethical and, at times, legal concerns. This creates an uncomfortable and high-risk working environment, particularly for those who prioritize compliance and professional integrity. Despite discussions around evolving the business toward higher-margin, relationship-driven growth, the operating model continues to default back to transactional “fill and bill” activity. Efforts to introduce more strategic structure, improve efficiency, and modernize workflows are often dismissed or labeled as unnecessary. There is also inconsistency in how policies and code of conduct are applied, which creates a perception of unfair and selective enforcement. This impacts trust, morale, and overall team performance. Additionally, there is an over-reliance on outdated sales approaches that do not reflect how modern workforce solutions are built or sustained in today’s market.
