Pros

You have the opportunity to work from home so most days you get to stay in your pj's! I can see what the CEO is trying to do - its a great concept just poorly executed.

Cons

Where to start - while you get to work from home they are unrealistic about work hours. They promise you work/ life balance and that's not what you get - just be prepared to work long hours and on your WAY in advanced planned for vacation. There is no HR team to employees have no where to go if an issue arises. The salaries are awful. The Directors talk poorly about not only their own team but other employees. For being a virtual company you would think that gossip wouldn't spread so fast but it does. Awful benefits, poor communication, no real growth opportunities.

I am certainly disappointed that you had to experience toxic employees. We certainly don't support that type of behavior and actively try to coach or weed out problems as quickly as we can. Sometimes that process takes longer than anyone would like. As for the work/life balance I encourage you to speak with your manager or me about that so we can work on adjustments. While we try to stay on top of everyone's individual challenges we also need your participation to create a great environment. Being part of a small company has it's trials and one of them is certainly the need to wear multiple hats and take on additional responsibilities periodically. Our aim is to create a work environment where team members can be challenged and grow with aggressive but achievable goals.

Pros

The people at TalenTrust are the best of the best. Supportive and caring, always willing to jump in and help each other. There is no guilt trips when you try to take time off or need to take a sick day. After coming from a toxic company, being at TalenTrust has been such a refreshing change.

Cons

The recruitment industry can be challenging and isn't for everyone. You'll have to be able to pivot at a moments notice, be creative, and be persistent. If you can do that, you'll do great at TalenTrust.
