Pros

Beautiful office (OKC), fun atmosphere, lots of events and outings

Cons

They have a very low base salary compared to other staffing firms, there is an excessive amount of drinking at the company in general (to the point that if you don't drink, you don't fit in), 95% of employees are young, fairly attractive and white.

Addison Group's base salaries range from office to office based on cost of living. While staffing is a commissions-based industry, Addison Group provides a competitive salary/benefits package. After doing extensive evaluation of our packages in comparison to other employers in our industry, we find that our compensation and benefits are fair. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not make hiring decisions based on an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, veteran status, genetic information, or any other characteristics protected by law. Ultimately, we are sorry that you feel Addison was not a good fit for you, and we wish you the best in your career.

Pros

Addison Group is a wonderful organization with incredible support from within, opportunities to grow, and great people to work with. I never expected to spend 4+ years of a career here starting out, - but I see a lot more time here in my future!

Cons

The workload can be demanding based on how successful you'd like it to be -- which is not a bad thing at all but the sky's the limit if you're willing to put in the work.
