Fun workplace

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
fun workplace but definitely for sales minded people. I absolutely love my team. Job is definitely for someone who wants to put in the work. You are rewarded for the work you put in.

they wait for you to build book of business and then push you out

If someone younger comes along watch out they will push you out. i was there over 10 years and then pushed out and my book of business was given to a 22 year old. They tell you are great and then with no warning or write up fire you.

Pros

good if you are young and pretty and preferral white

Cons

tried to sue me but backdown when they saw I wasn't backing down

Okay for new graduates but you'll grow more and faster elsewhere

What is the best part of working at the company?Weekly Pay, accrual of floater holidays and vacation timeWhat is the most stressful part about working at the company?The personalities. It's very cult-like, with most new hires being right out of college, unequal pay, and a trip incentive awarded to only producers. Back office staff was treated with unequal respect but lots of demand.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Work "hard", party hard(er). Booze and other substances flowed

Productive and fun work place

Over all great place to work. The system is great. I appreciate that there is good communication with the recruiters. It’s weekly lag and that’s great too.

Great work place

It's a great place to work. I started with no experience and was operating a laser within 4 months. Advancement is easy and it's a friendly work environment. Especially for someone with a criminal record as myself.

Pros

Free lunches sometimes and great perks

Cons

Really none

Nothing special

Nothing bad to say about them. Liked it and felt that my team was very nice. Good recruitment firm but nothing that truly stood out with my experience there.

They don't listen

Finding the right place for you is just as important as being a valuable asset. Addison Group completely ignored my needs and sent me to a place of work that I was not open to. I gave it two days before letting them know it wasn't going to work and I was looking for a better fit. I was told my their agent that I would never be given an assignment from them again trying to intimidate me to go back to that awful place.

Pros

None

Cons

No opportunity for growth

Loved the people I worked with but there was absolutely no opportunity for career advancement. They do not value tenure and prefer to hire new grads to churn and burn

Valuable learning experience

Pros: - Gain confidence calling and interviewing people - Opportunity to learn A LOT about the industry you recruit for (although no formal training) - Some sales training on how to close candidatesCons- extremely stressful culture since if you're not placing candidates, you're not valuable - very cliquish culture - the office is set up so everyone can hear and judge your calls - quantity over quality matters, as long as your candidate makes his/her 90-day guarantee

The company

Working for this company has changed the way I view a career. This role is a great way to not only grow professionally, but show you what a workplace should be like. I love going to work every day, I wake up excited to go in. I not only love my job but love the environment this company provides.

Pros

Company networking events, consistency, ability to be yourself

Cons

I have no cons at this time

Churn and burn

The team I was on has now cycled through roughly 16 employees in the past year. There are no words for the attrition rate there. The management should not be competing with their subordinates for commission.

It’s ok if you understand how it works

This is my first staffing service I’ve worked with and plan to never do it again. My recruiter was so helpful and eager to get me into ANY positions from the beginning, communication wasn’t all that great, I Would leave vm’s, texts, emails and wouldn’t hear back until the following week or until I nagged. It was ok for a bit, but I quickly learned that you’re just a number and they are throwing out as many jobs to as many people to get commission or paid by those companies.

Team oriented culture yet you get to bring your authentic self!

Normal day is setting meetings with potential candidates, screening them for potential hires with our clients and being a market intel resource for those on the job market. I have learned to control what I can control and to not take rejection personally. The culture is very fun-loving, collaborative with employee recognition and rewards. The hardest part of the job is managing people and people can be unpredictable. The most enjoyable part is changing a person's life with their dream job!

Pros

Unlimited PTO, flexible hybrid schedule and leadership is truly engaged with employees

Cons

Work-Life Balance- may have to put in some extra hours outside of work to grow

Supportive and fun workplace, will gain lots of great experience

Structured tasks and 2-week engaging training really prepared me for my role at Addison Group. Being an internal employee (not on sales floor) has been the best opportunity I've had in my career. My team and managers have been extremely amazing and supportive. We are always being rewarded for our hard work and efforts either via outings, lunches, gift cards, or half days. Only thing to get used to is the extremely young workforce here. As well as the lack of diversity in the corporate office. Overall, provides a healthy work-life balance with hybrid schedule, remote opportunities, and PTO. I can honestly disconnect from work during my evenings and weekends.

Pros

initiatives, work-life balance, proper training, professional development, gym in building

Cons

not a lot of diversity

The people can make or break this job!

This is a great job starting off your career straight out of college. Great to start out and gain professional experience. Recruiter and sales can be a bit of a rocky job with some highs and lows and need to be prepared for that. Your team can really help make this job more enjoyable and having a manager who is understand encouraging is game changing.

Pros

good benefits, good compensation, great team inclusion, good office

Cons

cold calls, little PTO starting off, 8-5 work days
