So as a recruiter I know that the people who leave reviews like this are "slighted and should be taken with a grain of salt in the grand scheme of things", BUT I really need you to take a good hard look at my review before you decide to join this company.
I took this role because I saw a lot of growth and I wasn't to leave an extremely hostile situation at my former company. I wish I would have seen the red flags from the get-go, but alas I am impatient and was just trying to get the hell out of where I was.
Where to begin...
- You will be gaslighted (and if you don't know what that means look it up because through-and-through you will receive the textbook definition of that word throughout your time at this company if you choose to accept a position with them)
- Paid an under market value salary with the promise of commission that would make up for the hard work given. There was never really a balance between Work put in vs. incentive/reward.
-Big on "what are you doing"/ meeting culture. A lot of these meetings could have been done in an email, but this was something I was told was implemented at the beginning of COVID to make sure everyone was awake and working. We had a meeting every morning basically at 8 or 8:30 depending on the day where we got on and recited everything we did the day before, any updates on the reqs we were working on, and what we would accomplish that day. If you didn't have much to say in your meeting you were met with either a managing partner or recruiting manager calling you out on why you didn't get "X" done or how come you couldn't have done more. I heard a lot of "that's all you have?" type of jargon.
- Extreme gossip/and unprofessionalism. Very often my manager would ask me about what I think of other people in the office and try to talk negatively about them. For example: "hey, what do you think of 'X'? I hear she is really catty and negative." You have to watch what you say around the office because it definitely will come ack to bite you.
- Mark. Mark is the CEO/Managing Partner of Resolvit and at first I really liked him, until I realized that he was just a salesman that decided to create his own company and never really learned the true fundamentals of what it was like to be a leader. Mark refers to people as snowflakes and is a true elitist. He degrades his female workers, constantly calls them "cutie", and comments on their physical appearance whether it be wearing more makeup or choosing different clothing to wear. I do not like Mark and neither will you.
- Retention. We had a really hard time bring people into the company and a really, really bad retention problem. Over the last year I counted 18 people who quit the company between Sourcing, Recruiting, and Sales.
Look, with the hours you put in here you will learn transferable skills without a doubt. But as you can see, in my opinion the pros do not outweigh the cons and looking back I wish I wasn't in such a hurry to get out of my former position as fast because I truly just jumped from one bad place to another bad place to work.
