Pros

Intitial welcoming was nice, some employees were great to work with and respectful.

Cons

Management consistently lacks transparency and demonstrates noticeable favoritism within the team. Leaders often speak negatively about employees among themselves, creating an unprofessional and uncomfortable environment. Salaries are low compared to the workload, and there is little to no work–life balance. Additionally, some staff members have made inappropriate and discriminatory remarks toward candidates, which contributes to a toxic atmosphere. The turnover rate is high, and although many employees are dissatisfied, they feel pressured to appear positive in front of management. Advancement requires taking on an unrealistic amount of work, and employees are regularly working after hours without compensation to catch up on the workload—something management is fully aware of but chooses not to address. There is also significant age discrimination. Older employees are often treated disrespectfully and pushed out, with leadership attempting to cover these actions through misleading explanations. Accountability is consistently avoided, and the reasons for employee departures are rarely communicated honestly. Management notices when recruiting managers treat others poorly but doesn't pay any mind because they want the recruiter to stay with the company because they are focused on the monthly income made.

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
