Pros

You get to work in a lovely city!

Cons

They say "work-life" balance is very important for them, however; they expect you to stay a little over or even work at home, but you cannot work more then 40 hours/wk. Don't believe the "you are the CEO of your desk" line, because commission is not what you'll expect, minuscule amount will come to you. The culture of the office has faded, and is no longer enjoyable; if you are a zombie you will do well. It doesn't matter how hard you work. If numbers are low, even for the whole office, you are not valuable for them and you will feel it.

Pros

Decent salary base, probably could be a really good paying job if the job market was better

Cons

Definitely a typical, corporate sales culture where you are defined by your metrics and your metrics only. They are money grabbers, and their commission structure isn't that great. After 2 years you lose 50% of your commission from contractors and they eliminated early release days before holidays. My office started becoming a "bro culture" and the leader was clearly trying to act like "one of the guys" with the males in the office. If your market is slow with reqs, they expect you to reach out to other offices for subs which is hard to do when other offices favor their own teams' recruiters. They'll likely give you a picked over req or one not close to the money that their own team didn't want to work on. I had to reach out to other offices daily to basically beg for a req to work on to hit my metrics. To add to it, the PTO structure for salaried employees is not how they described it when I joined. 17 PTO days total (including sick/personal time btw) and it is actually accrued throughout the year. I had to use PTO for sick time and a vacation, so when I left I had to write them a check for my balance! Talk about a way to really give someone the boot when they're on their way out the door.
