Pros
Pay can be very rewarding, but that has changed drastically since covid ended. Most recruiters are making 50k a year. It was a fun place to work during the pandemic when the going was good, but those days are long gone. Recruiters hate it there and growth to the point of making 6 figures is next to impossible as a recruiter in that environment.
Cons
Leadership makes every decision in a room full of the same people who have not actually talked to anyone on the front lines doing the job. Leaders are extremely narcissistic and are either blind, or don't care that good people are struggling to make ends meet in their own company. Nepotism runs wild there. Anyone in an executive/leadership role is either related to someone, or is a close personal friend of an owner. The lack of accountability at Atlas is incredible. Leaders will bash recruiters for not working hard, but have zero work ethic themselves. The company has no culture, yet they pay a director of culture and engagement that runs a survey once a year that I can tell you leadership doesn't care or want to listen to any feedback on it. Almost every recruiter that has been there knows and feels that the leaders have no idea what they are doing and don't respect the frontline workers. Managers and leaders get paid big bucks to basically do nothing, and have zero accountability if things go wrong. It is a pass the buck mentality from the top down.
