Pros

-dog friendly office -exposure to interesting companies

Cons

-founders are extremely difficult to work with. Everything is your fault and we are supposed to bend over backwards to keep the client happy even when it’s not possible. Once the founder berated me for not having candidates already for a role that was fulfilled and reopen in less than a day. I started in the role wanting to do well in it but was quickly demotivated by all this. -high turnovers. almost 100% turnover in one year. The morale is low at all times and the staff regularly get together to vent about the state of the company and its leadership. More than a couple occasions, I have witnessed coworkers crying due to the stress/demands I lasted as long as I could but this experience have left me traumatized and for a while I had to take a break from working just to regain my confidence and work through my anxiety. I wish I could go back and stop myself from ever joining this company.

As the CEO and Co-founder of TalentMinded this is a very tough review to read. I'm disappointed to learn that TalentMinded was not a good fit and that you experienced stress and anxiety during your time here. We are committed to elevating talent acquisition through our programs like the Coaching Portal, the Next Generation TA Meetup group and other initiatives like the Recruiter Bootcamp that we hope to launch in 2022. We also keep our 'virtual' doors open and consistently solicit feedback from our people to keep improving the employee experience. Most importantly, we do not condone gossip and value transparency at all times - when things are going well and when there are challenges. I would personally welcome the opportunity to connect on how you felt about your work experience if you were willing/open - kim@talentminded.ca or 416-587-1283.
