Pluspunten

if you get to the point where you can spend all your days cold calling, you make decent connections with hiring managers around your city. if not, you're stuck at your desk calling candidates

Minpunten

After a month of being there, I spent almost every day crying in the bathroom. Over 40 calls a day, if you don't hit every single number you are humiliated in group meetings, girls have to wear high heels and full makeup everyday. I was shamed for wearing less makeup than usual because I was sick. Basically a call center, phones ring off the hook all day long. No WFH flexibility, expect you to get to the office at 7 am and not leave until 7 pm some days, with a 30k salary. PTO is extremely strict and you get shamed if you try to take it before 6 months even though it is "technically available" from the day you start. 0 work life balance. It is also extremely unethical in some ways because they have you submit resumes just for the sake of hitting numbers. You get people's hopes up knowing they won't get the job because you are expected to hit your own numbers. Once you are able to get out of being a recruiter, you have to cold call all day long. literally all day long. Even then, if you don't set enough meetings, again you get publicly shamed and taken out of the promotion program. Lastly, there are often many low level jobs and many jobs in the development space where many foreign citizens are being called on to find candidates. in my experience, people could be extremely ignorant and racist on the phone with these people, especially since there was 0 diversity in our office. They say it's a great place to work with Red Bull flip cup, bi-yearly conferences, happy hours and opportunities to move up and win contests to travel to tropical places, The people who ACTUALLY reach those milestones are few and far between and are willing to handle mental and emotional abuse from their managers. If I could give working here negative stars, I would.

Pluspunten

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Minpunten

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
