Recruitics Reviews

Pros

Recruitics is a great place to work for many reasons: - Office culture is great: snacks, foosball table, mini-basketball hoop, dog-friendly office, and friendly and upbeat colleagues, annual holiday and summer parties - Catered lunches or random treats in the office every once in a while - Lots of opportunity for growth if you put in the hard work - Easy access to the leadership team to discuss ideas, ask questions, etc.

Cons

There are a fair share of cons, but many of them are results of Recruitics' rapid growth: - Lots of organizational shifts over the past 12 months which have caused friction between different arms of the organization - Persistent uncertainty and lack of clarity regarding areas of responsibility and growth plan across all levels of employees (though Recruitics is definitely working on this) - Lack of clear or standardized processes for almost any type of project (also a current issue Recruitics is tackling) - Historically reactive hiring rather than proactive hiring; i.e. waiting until employees suffer severe bandwidth issues to hire new employees rather than anticipating these issues and hiring early.

Pros

great culture, flexible, wonderful perks, growth opportunity, actually pay bonuses and have attainable goals, management cares

Cons

growing so fast, there is constant change - all good but the pace is not for everyone. Erratic titling.

Pros

Recruitics is a young company with young, friendly people. There's a good culture (foosball table, social outings, free food sometimes, etc), and generally its a good place to work if you're young and looking to gain experience within the industry. 401K matching program (when they decide to match) is great!

Cons

I would caution any experienced sales professional to take a look at very lean, very young sales force they have, and the turnover they've experienced in the sales department. The finance department seldom if ever paid commissions correctly. Make sure you watch your commissions like a hawk to find the mistakes they're sure to make, as nobody else will be assisting you with that. With regard to commissions and compensation generally, there were a lot of false promises made. The leadership team betrayed their own business rules on multiple occasions to protect their own margins and keep the best business as 'house accounts'. The length of time that sales people are paid commissions on Closed Won business is far less than anyone else in the industry, and even the best sales people on the team struggled to hit the quarterly quotas set by management.

Pros

Recruitics is ideal for those looking to enter the industry- and those with years of experience to have their hand in shaping the company and contributing their experience to the growth of Recruitics (I fell into the latter). If you love to have the ability to blaze your own path (within a newly forming support structure that's still maturing) - and are entrepreneurial- this is the ideal place for you. Everyone is open to suggestions, ideas and willing to help you succeed. Culturally - it was also one of the warmest, and most fun places I've ever worked. I loved that so much about being at Recruitics. Work from home is supported as needed (and appropriate to your role), but expect to be in the office. You won't be bored, and will enjoy the atmosphere. If you want to join a company where you're celebrated- supported, appreciated and can laugh with your co-workers this is absolutely the place for you. Everyone here brings their A game and it never really felt like work (on most days). :)

Cons

For those experienced, be prepared to dig deep into your tool kit of experience and contribute. You'll be working with a team that goes from inexperienced to those that have been in the business for a few years. For me - that was my greatest joy and biggest frustration at times. But it did lead to some great opportunities to help mentor and watch some of the younger staff evolve. Benefits are ok, but expensive. That will eat into your comp. The office is quite nice, but a little cramped. If you don't do well sitting in close quarters next to your immediate co-workers you'll have a hard time. It does get very noisy at times- but everyone is respectful. The equipment is good- and mostly new (or within the last couple of years). Everyone keeps it pretty neat and clean. Comp was ok, and they lean on bonuses to supplement your income. This is a start-up and your comp may be uneven at times. But I always felt they were fair- and supportive. Your experience will depend on your role, your attitude and frankly your abilities.

Pros

Really positive culture Smart colleagues who care about the work and each other Great communication from the top down, we always know what's going on

Cons

You can only work from home after you've been with the company for a certain amount of time.
