Pros

Fully remote & can literally work anywhere in the world with wifi connection Provides laptop, monitor, mouse, and headset Benefits are provided if needed however you do pay a monthly contribution that comes out of your check every 2 weeks

Cons

You pay a monthly for access to recruiting tools like LinkedIn, Zoom Info, Indeed The pay scale is good depending on what industry you get to recruit for and territories you get You don't get to choose which industry you get to recruit for, it's chosen for you and some industries pay better and are more consistent with hiring opportunities like construction, financial services, insurance This should really be classified as a 1099 experience because they take 30% of what money you earn per placement until you bring $150,000 cash in then you earn 50% but that can be extremely hard depending on what industry you get and how high the need is in that industry. While you are awaiting placement you will go into what they call a "draw" and that is gpac's equivalent of fronting your "business expenses" until you make placements. Keep in mind if your placements aren't consistent and at least $15,000 or more ( making at least 3-4 placements a month) your draw will grow quickly and they will try to get you to quit or they will fire you because to them it's costing them more to keep you . Not a lot of empathy for unexpected life events including illness unless you are already a very high earner. They will try to get you to quit( no unemployment benefits if you quit) or will fire you if it comes to that point.

Pros

All training and equipment provided Full internal support from all departments Uncapped earning potential Remote work Encouraging culture (not stuffy, cooperate feel) fun, high energy, supportive

Cons

It's tough. It takes a lot of internal drive and commitment. This isn't something for the weak, or those who throw in the towel with things get hard. A lot of cold outreach is required to build your desk and network - that alone isn't for everyone, especially those looking for an "easy" button.
