Company Reviews
Employee reviews4.0
21 Reviews- Good company if you love staffing2025-10-16T09:33:03.927
Pros: For a staffing firm, it's top notch and where you want to be if you thrive under pressure and in high metrics/KPI environments. Great culture, incredible people to work with, great opportunity to grind and make money if that's what you enjoy.
Cons: It's still staffing. The three meetings a day to discuss updates is out dated and contributes to very poor work life balance, particularly the 8 am meetings, especially for employees with children. Being in staffing, it can feel like a typical corporate pressure chamber, The comparison to other Recruiters or AM's and pressure to meet these metrics can become incredibly stressful and negatively impact your mental health and make you feel like you can't enjoy your time off or time outside of work. In typical sales or staffing nature, you are completely reliant on your commission as part of your salary. No one would be able to survive off of the base salaries alone, so if something happens out of your control and you lose several placements, you may find yourself in a position where you can't pay your mortgage/childcare/typical monthly expenses.
- A Place I'm Proud To Be2024-06-26T09:46:27.053
Pros: Supportive leadership, terrific culture, room to grow without immense pressure to be perfect out of the gate
Cons: Not really a con, but it can be a tough (but attainable) learning curve when you're new to the industry, which I was when I began. Nonetheless, I was impressed with the onboarding and follow-up from the Enablement team and our leadership as I grew into the role.
- Supportive environment2023-10-27T19:19:06.373
Pros: Great work life balance, supportive environment for new suggestions and solutions
Cons: Career path (small corp ops team)

How does Enhancv spot a ghost job?
Every posting goes through five checks: how long it has been up, whether a salary is posted, what employees say about the company, how specific the description is and whether it lists real requirements. Each job shows the checks it passed and the ones it didn't.
How fresh are the job postings?
Enhancv checks postings every hour, and every job shows how long ago it went up. Most hires happen within 30 days of posting. A listing that's been open for two months raises its ghost job risk.
