Went silent after offer discussion

Pros

Showed a lot of promise through 4 rounds of interview

Cons

After the CFO interview, HR called to negotiate salary. I asked for 30% and they hard negotiated foe 25% and finally they said they will raise it for approval and come back with new offer. After that they didn't even call back for a week. When I tried calling them, they didn't even pickup the call. When I sent an email, they said the job is under hold for restructuring in the department. Poor way of handling prospective hire especially at Senior level. They showed great speed through the interview process and went into hiding later on

Avoid at all costs

Pros

Free coffee and water, also a chair at your desk

Cons

Very low base salary, terrible comission structure, toxic culture, management are disconnected and self serving. No clarity about progression or promotion, even though the role is sold as an opportunity to progress quickly. The goalposts constantly move with targets. Zero benefits. Witnessed people crying at their desks, taking stress leave, not being paid commission they have earned after they leave & bullying

Pros

Good spot to learn the staffing business

Cons

Company laid me off "due to the economic impact of COVID-19"....then turns around and tells people they've never done layoff (I currently work at a competitor and this is common knowledge in our market). Was also told the day before I was laid off that "we're a 24 billion dollar company. There is nothing to worry about". Do the math.
