Pros

Thorough training, on-boarding process. Enjoyed the duties of the job but not the environment . The salary and benefits keep employees in positions longer than they would typically stay

Cons

Upper management is terrible across the board. The "cancer" goes beyond Area Vice President's and even after hearing feedback and having formal HR complaints filed they continue to overlook the problems and do nothing to resolve issues. This has resulted in an abnormally high turn over rate in the Florida region and loss of some great employees. No work life balance, unrealistic expectations. Quantity over quality, very "hit and run" sales mentality, very "used car salesman" approach

Pros

Decent salary and bonus. Lots of training.

Cons

Expectations are unrealistic. They talk about having a balanced life; however, you have to meet quota (# interviews per week, # times you spoke to clients, # time you marketed a candidate to client, how many times did i tell them i have great candidates in my pipeline and how many perm candidates did i shove down my clients throat and so much more) in addition to payroll for 80+ employees, employee relations and engagement activities, workers comp management, safety coach and profit and loss responsibilities. Did I say that all positions are to be filled in 24-48 hours? They keep the pressure on by having daily conference calls with the Site Managers. If a Manager doesn't meet the quota for the previous day or week, they are verbally beaten up while their peers listen in. Currently working 50-60 hours a week just to make quota.
