Pros

The recruitment team for the most part are excellent people, the commission structure is great, and it is a small company to work for so you become close knit with your colleagues.

Cons

The owner is not an honest person. He pretends to care about his employees, but clearly doesn't. He talks a big game about open communication, work life balance, and how well he pays you. But if you have a life outside of there the the owner will not be happy with it and openly talk down to you in front of others to make an example. There is almost no communication that is truthful that comes out of his mouth. He says he pays very well, but will take money from your commission checks, and even though your told your a salaried employee you are micro managed to death and forced to work whenever he wants you to. If you work 35 hrs he pays for 35, but if you work 60 he pays you for 40. The worst thing is when the owner explodes on someone in front of the entire office. Its not only unprofessional to hear him swear at you, its embarrassing and makes the whole office uncomfortable. Ive seen the best producers leave because of him

Pros

This might be one of the best work environments I have been apart of. Jim Cipriani has established team, almost family like, work environment. I was challenged but never abandoned. We worked to make sure everyone could reach their goals. These are good people trying to improve the lives of others!

Cons

This is a challenging position. If you want to get rewarded you must put in the work. I have worked 50hr+ jobs in the past, but starting out this is like you Jr. year in college all over again. You will get mentally fatigued, but the reward is worth it!

Pros

Systems Personnel is one of the top Staffing Agencies in Western New York with a great reputation and over 20 years of experience. Basically, we help companies find great employees they can't find on their own & we help people get in front of new opportunities they likely wouldn't have access to without us. This is a mission driven company with an experienced staff, all truly dialed in and committed to the mission (Improving Lives Through Employment). Although a challenge, I love the work I am doing. When I go to sleep at night, I know I'm doing something worthwhile, that I'm making a difference in people’s lives, and I’m making over $100k/yr. doing it.

Cons

This is a challenging, fast paced job and is not for everyone. Companies hire us because we actively go out, find, and contact people who are not necessarily in the job market. This is a true "headhunting" type role. That involves a lot of researching, digging, cold calling, emailing, texting, and talking to/meeting with high volumes of people per week. There is a lot of sweat equity that must be put in, you have to be thick skinned, take rejection well, and be self-motivated with strong work ethic. This is not a 40/hr per week job. At the end of the day, this is a sales role and you will get out of it what you put in. It is extremely rewarding intrinsically and can be very very lucrative if you are willing to put the effort and hours in.
