Pros

Good product Good insurance German CEO seems like a nice guy who is the most reasonable of the 'leadership' There used to be some awesome people to work with

Cons

Toxic is an understatement. The Chief of Staff/BD Manager/Ops/CS Manager/Finance/Sales trainer/Sales Manager person(yes one person) who used to be an intern and has never worked a real job before this one, has single handedly brought down the company and the biggest reason why most employees left or got fired. The CEO is in another location so he has the CoS be his henchman and whatever the CoS says goes. He just doesn't care about running a company. There used to be some awesome people to work with. The old sales leaders and the people that were here were a great group. There was a glimmer of hope that the naive in-experienced (age and tenure) leadership would actually not get in their own way. But that didn't happen. There was potential. But when you are in one of the biggest job markets in the country with an abundant list of amazing companies to work for, WorkGenius cannot compete. Look at the past tenure of the majority of employees. Aside from the founders/CEO and CoS no one has been at the company longer than a year. Red flag is an understatement.

Pros

The pay is good pay if you land a contract with an excellent company.

Cons

– Zero benefits – Toxic and abusive environment The toxicity encompasses even the recruiters who are not just scattered, uniformed, and concerned only with themselves, but who also actively engage in bullying and gaslighting.
