Pros

Decent pay if you are just getting out of college If you stay with them and are doing great, easy to move upward mobility

Cons

-No time to leave at a decent hour (you will be looked down upon if you do) -You have a set base pay (which is nice), but at some days you are working 9-10 hours and there is no OT (because of the base) -No matter what, it is a cold calling job but they said it is "recruiting" (so if you do not like sales/cold calling, dont even bother) -If you are not performing at the minimum or at peak performance, they will have no problem of letting you go. (I was not let go, i just heard of people being let go * just like that)

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.
