Pros

Strong technology - Salesforce Fun people, personality wise Great team building activities outside of work

Cons

-Too much of a shark environment here. -Certain managers try to steal credit. -You have to watch out for other recruiters trying to be sneaky and steal your candidates, there is no real system in place to make sure this doesn't happen. -Other Recruiters can steal flips- again no real system in place to protect your hard work -Everyone is just trying to step on the next person to get where they need to be. -Constant fighting over credit... its exhausting. -Constant trainings from people who are NOT in production so they don't know what they're talking about. -Micro-management when it comes to KPIs and metrics -New Hire training is just a bunch of reading material... and trainings from people who aren't in production so new hires aren't trained properly. -Bonuses are affected by outside variables like candidates not showing up for work or client's backing out of a deal... so basically you work for free on those. -As hard as we work and as stressed out as we are day in and day out, there should be unlimited CTO - No Sick time awarded.. if you're sick you're forced to use your CTO. It should be separate.

Pros

Non Given at this Time.

Cons

I have Worked in Accounting for Over 20 Years. I was Lied to, as to Why the Previous Staff Accountant Resigned. The Employer I was Assigned to was a Bully and Verbally Abusive. I Spoke with a Director, and asked to be Considered for Other Positions. The Director agreed, that they would put Me in the System as Available for Other Positions. I Also Applied on the Robert Half Site, for 3-4 Positions I Qualified for within my area. No one Ever Called Me about Any Positions. Even after Another Robert Half Employee, who worked alongside with me; in a different Position for the Abusive Employer Resigned on the Spot. Robert Half Never called to check on me, knowing I was “Their” Employee; still in The Toxic Environment. I Found out that Robert Half Had Continuously Placed Women, in this Same Position after Complaints were Told to them from Previous Staff Accountants; of this Abusive and Bullying Employer.

Pros

It's a place to learn a variety of basic principles about how not to do business.

Cons

There are 2 comp plans - they only ever tell you about the first one until you creep toward the 18-month market, at which point they either force you out or "remember to mention" you are now on a draw and that you have to essentially pay for yourself to show up to work. Not to mention, all this while also execting you stay motivated under micromanagement by incompetent, underqualified, and fearful leadership. Every leader in lower / mid / mid-to-high level management is vastly over-reaching their experience in those positions. Leadership and mangement training occurs 6-18 months after a promotion has already happened and the training itself is insulting and clearly thrown together as an afterthought by rotating "trainers" who barely meet qualifications to enjoy a 6 month break from production to "train" "new" managers. Also, the company provides you a laptop so you can work remotely... after you've put your 40 hours in for the week, in no way, shape, or form do they want you to experience work-life balance.
