Pluspunten
Hands-off approach to recruiting. Many firms have very specific "call times" or measuring minutes, kill all social media, etc. ParallelHR is mostly hands-off with these things.
Minpunten
Very poor leadership structure. Their is no HR or employee relations. The work environment is pretty hostile with the founders / partners being unresponsive to complaints. For a sales position (which is what recruiting is), the place is mostly dead quiet with little to no interaction. The compensation structure versus other firms is between 2x to 4x lower then other permanent placement staffing firms (this means thousands of dollars in commission difference. ParallelHR starts you at 5% of revenues. Research average compensation in recruiting as it is nearly impossible with the business structure of ParallelHR to even come close to $60,000 in total compensation. The company was beginning to outsource its recruiting efforts, opening up an Indian office. Training consists of 1-2 hours on a CRM system and a few phone calls. Ongoing training and knowledge sharing was starting to get better. Their is no growth opportunity within the firm. This is a big selling point to new employees. You cannot grow a business when you churn through 50% of the workforce every year. As far as the positive review, "You eat what you kill" is a term used by the partner Megan McMillan so be wary of the company. Their is no reason to not seek out alternate Permanent Placement firms..
