Pros

Good initial training for the role.

Cons

Poor management. Unrealistic expectations for it's employee's. Bad commission/bonus structure. A LOT of stress in the role. Too much Micromanagement. Not willing to take feedback or hear new ideas. Do not allow a receptionist in the branch which means additional workload to the staff that is already overwhelmed. Not enough diversity within the office (i.e. hiring the exact same type of individual -- women ages 23-30 years old with the same personality type). Unethical. A LOT of gossip between upper management and bad mouthing other employees which comes across as very unprofessional.

Pros

Great benefits, good salary, lots of locations which makes transfers a possibility

Cons

Ridiculous amounts of stress to achieve unattainable objectives. My experience of management was a negative one involving an insecure, unstable micromanager. Higher management not easily approachable.

Pros

They gave me an opportunity to apply for employment.

Cons

They have no follow through. I did everything they told me to do during the interviewing process. They made promises to me, and their promises were broken. They are just another selfish and greedy recruiting agency, who only cares about putting money in their pockets with no regards to anybody else. The upper management will try and intimidate you when you go in for an interview,and then they will make you promises and have no follow through on them. If they treat people badly who are prospectable employeeswith them how the heck do they treat their employees.
