Pros

Office in Buckhead (middle of traffic) and you get a paycheck.

Cons

Very toxic work place, not a team environment at all. Recruiters do NOT share candidates, which is not helpful for the talent, client, or the individual working at TCG. They make fun of talent behind their backs and gossip runs rampant. It's disgusting how a large brand can operate with such a negative attitude. They scare candidates into thinking you have to ONLY work exclusively with the creative group and scare clients into doing the same. Nothing is nurturing or growth-worthy there. Very stagnant model, management has horrible attitudes and will scream, yell, and curse you out. They can pretty much do whatever they want if they can bill the client for it.

Pros

Teammates were usually great and everyone is in the same corporate hell.

Cons

Lots of Cons. Do not take an internal position. They will bleed you dry, take your clients and show you door. Not worth dirtying your resume with their name on it.

Pros

If you're an account manager or recruiter, they pay well, and there's a lot of opportunity to make money. Account managers do get out of the office quite a bit. The pay is the only reason this gets two stars from me rather than one.

Cons

Long hours - you will work every day from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. if not longer. There is an "unwritten code" among the team that you shouldn't take too long for lunch or be out of the office too often. The metrics are almost unreachable; while you're there, you'll hardly have time to breath before you have to get on that next phone call. They employ the sales tactics of used cars salesmen - they want you to be pushy and overly aggressive to the point you've annoyed your clients. They only care about the almighty dollar, not the candidates or the clients. They'll stick with 6-10 core candidates and place them on several different projects just to make money for themselves rather than place a new candidate. They will tell you that you have a year to "ramp up" to where they want you to be. However, if you're not quite where they want you to be after 3 months or so, they'll let you go. There were 3 people let go during the short time I was there and one person left on their own. VERY HIGH TURNOVER. Little to no training about the recruiting or technical side of the creative industry. If you have no experience with creative/marketing/advertising, or recruiting, forget it.
