Pluspunten
I learned organization skills and professionalism. I went on face to face meetings with clients that were beneficial and gave me pretty good exposure to outside sales. Learned how to take the harshest constructive criticism and will now never be afraid of cold calling anyone again.
Minpunten
It’s hard to know where to begin. There were things I learned from this company like I said above, but the biggest and MOST important thing I learned is what I will literally never do with my life again. All the reviews you read on here about the sick micromanaging they do are ALL true. They don’t give you an inch to breath before they have something negative to say about your numbers and don’t really bother to give you credit for the awesome things you do. The only time they will do that is when they think you’re about to quit. They have a horrible training program. They start you off by having you spend all day sitting next to someone in the pit for the first week, then they send you on your own with literally zero direction. If you mess anything up, they’ll make It seem like it’s completely your fault when in reality no one ever trained you and you couldn’t have known better. For some odd reason they don’t send you to formal training for 3-6 weeks after you’ve started working, and which point you’ve pretty much learned everything wrong and have to relearn the whole job at training. They care so much about your appearance that they’ll look down on you or even send you home if you don’t have heels on and a full face of makeup and perfect hair. You work so hard only for your commission to go toward the managers while they put off your promotion for months on end, even if you’re numbers are there. They want the recruiters to be recruiters for as long as possible so they can keep making their money. All of the recruiters are disposable though, so if you quit they’ll pretend to care about you as a person, but at the end of the day they’ll hire some other poor soul to take your place. Very few people get promoted, and even then they’re just as micromanaged as the rest. They preach a fun company culture, but that’s all bs. They might give you the occasional beer on a Friday, but its definitely not worth what they put you through the rest of the week. I could go on, but bottom line is this is the most depressing place to work. Aside from the actual work being unenjoyable (IT recruiting is super tough, but that wasn’t the part I hated), this is a depressing company. Dreading work every morning and going to lunch and wondering what would happen if you just never came back should not be how you spend 40+ hours of your week. Save yourself the trouble and get as far away from this company as you can.
