Pros

Flexibility with work from home arrangements, had two days working from home. Feels pretty standard especially after covid.

Cons

The team environment was lacking and the pay was mediocre. Overall there is room for improvement in work environment, career opportunities internally, management and compensation.

Pros

Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

Cons

Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
