I have been working at Embedded Resource Group full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
ERG reinvests into its employees more than any other company I have ever worked for. Since they are not publicly responsible to share holders, they share the company profit at a level that promotes high loyalty and close inter-office relationships. Growth opportunities are there for people who want to work hard. Expectations are high but so is compensation. This is the company for those that want to work hard and be the best in the valley. This the company for recruiters who know they want to be recruiters. People that are excelling have selected recruiting and/or account management as their career choice.
Culture is relaxed. People have fun. We play ping pong. We joke. We work. We go to baseball games. We joke some more. We have EPIC Christmas parties.
Cons
Expectations can be high at times but what thing worth doing was ever easy?
If you are not prepared to be on the phone most of the day this is not the job for you.
Advice to Management
Manage people's individual strengths and weaknesses individually. Blanket policies don't usually work for everyone. Management is hands off when people are doing what they need to do to be successful.
Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Embedded Resource Group (Campbell, CA) in June 2015.
Interview
I was first phone screened, then I was asked to undergo an onsite interview. Neither of the interviews were too challenging. I elaborated on my resume and talked about my interests and future plans. I talked about why I was interested in working here. The interview process for me, being a part-time employee, was not strict.
