Pros

Office location is nice. They talk a good game during the interview... but that’s all.

Cons

So many! - very dramatic / political environment - will try to take base salary away after 12 months - leadership tries to lead from a place of fear - very low salary and commission structure - no resources or training offered - sink or swim type environment - no real HR or payroll department - so there’s always issues with payroll and commissions being incorrect - very shady client practices - CEO is so removed from actual reality it’s hilarious. She only cares about the bottom line and how much money she’s making - lots of crying and screaming on a daily basis - if you’ve never had anxiety and stomach ulcers before... this place will give them to you!

Hi reviewer, It’s unusual for us to hear such unfortunate feedback from a former employee, but thank you for sharing your personal experience and allowing us to address some of these concerns. We have an established HR and Payroll team to ensure proper resources and paychecks are always available to both our internal and contract employees. Our onboarding and training programs are constantly reviewed and updated to ensure they are thorough and that they empower our newest team members to start with confidence. We continue to be proud of our promote from within culture as well as our competitive pay structure. We have recently been honored by our internal employees who voted Paramount as a Top 10 Best Place to Work in Atlanta and lead us to be certified nationally as a Great Place to Work. We owe this recognition entirely to our team’s appreciation of our workplace. We can certainly agree that Jessie is not a dog and all of us are honored to call her our Managing Director and appreciate her leadership. As our company continues to grow, we will always consider feedback and make decisions that support our mission, team and clientele. Respectfully, The Paramount Team

Don’t work here

Pros

There really are not any. Pretty good diversity I guess.

Cons

Really bad leadership, awful culture. The hybrid model is nice, but they'll threaten to take it away the second you don't perform by their ever-changing standard. The clients are terrible, you have no support from leadership when you're being harassed by candidates. Managing partner thinks everyone is conspiring against her at all times and has likely never spoken the phrase "good job". I’ve had a lot of jobs in my life, this being easily the worst. Please, and l'm being so straightforward, do not work here. You will regret it within your first 90 days. PS. All of the positive reviews on this page are from people who are confusing this company with Paramount Pictures. There are no project managers or technical/creative roles at Paramount Staffing.
