Pros

Remote, which they are now doing away with to get people in hubs and letting go of people that they hired as remote employees Trauma bonded with other people so you make strong friendships

Cons

Toxic, abusive, big brother, corporate bullying at its finest. Zero regard for anything but the bottom dollar. You are just a cog in the wheel for this company and they lack total capacity to be human. Be prepared to be proverbially chained to your desk for 8 hours a day with camera and microphone on under the premise of the “fun and interactive metaverse”. That’s their idea of “remote”. It’s giving big brother. You are forced to go through a training program that they fire 90 percent of new hires in 3 months. You are told to fall in line or leave by upper management and told to work harder and use work as your crutch if you’re ever going through anything outside of work. They will fire anyone that has a voice or opinion that may differ from the big, bad wolf. This ship is the titanic, it’s sinking fast, save yourself. I promise there are other organizations that will NOT treat you with utter disregard like this.

Pros

The team was one of the strongest aspects of the organization, with many supportive and hardworking colleagues. PTO and time-off benefits were competitive, including occasional early-release days and additional time-off opportunities throughout the year.

Cons

The company culture has significantly declined in recent years, leading to lower employee morale and engagement. Micromanagement became increasingly common, while transparency and trust diminished. Although remote work was heavily promoted, there has been a shift toward a hybrid/in-office model. Office conditions often created challenges, including recurring maintenance issues and an open floor plan that made it difficult to focus and conduct private conversations or meetings. Compensation has not remained competitive with market expectations, making it increasingly difficult for employees to achieve strong earnings. Comparable staffing firms in the industry often offer higher compensation while providing similar benefits and time-off programs. As a result, retaining experienced recruiters and top performers has become increasingly challenging. Work-life balance also suffered due to the pressure of meeting KPIs and performance metrics, often requiring work outside of normal business hours to remain competitive and meet expectations. Employee engagement initiatives and team-building activities that once contributed to a positive environment have largely disappeared. There has also been noticeable turnover among tenured employees and top performers, raising concerns about retention and overall organizational direction.
