Spark Talent Acquisition Reviews

Pros

I did learn a lot in the manufacturing industry.

Cons

Great place to learn while still in school or right out of school. I wouldn’t recommend this role for anyone who wanted a family or personal life. The realization of how toxic the environment there is doesn’t hit you until long after you leave. Unrealistic goals are set where they don’t provide you with continued education in the field. They need to change with the times and keep up with their competitors. The turn over rate is extremely high, family members are given different rules than other employees. Working in a professional company in a recruitment role and utilizing other staffing agencies has made me see how unprofessional this company really was. “Room for growth” promises are empty, its a fear endured environment. People are only there because they are complacent. The owner will trying to hook you with lines of becoming a millionaire etc. There are two people there who make amazing money and grew there the VP, and a family member account manager/sales/recruiter who is known for lying and cheating the system. The extremely aggressive emails and way we where treated daily makes me sick.

Pros

How hard working and motivating each and every employee is inside and outside of the office

Cons

It can be a 24/7 availability job. You have to be willing to put the time in to truly succeed here.

Pros

Money you can make a good living but will sacrifice a lot personally. Some of the employees are amazing people that i have formed good friendships with even though i wasnt at the company for very long.

Cons

To start off when they interview and hiring on they flat out lie. They promised me a certain pay rate after training and then completely chained it. In my interview with the vice president and the owner they asked what was important to me and i told them flat out I was looking for a 9-5 because i value my personal time, they assured me this wasnt going to an issue and most people get their work done during business hours. This couldnt be further from the truth. I would receive calls and emails at all hours of the day, night and weekends from the people working for me and from the company itself. Then if you didnt reply upper management would flip out on you. Another huge issue is the executive team. They are down right awful people. The owner is self-absorbed and cares about one thing MONEY. He uses people to get what he wants out of them. I personally witnessed him yell and swear at people in the middle of the office for the most random things. He seems almost bi polar. He doesnt care about anything but money from the actions i have seen. Not family, friends nothing. If his clients knew what went on behind the scenes they would not due business with the company ever. I also think it is funny that the reviews on here are all forced. When we first were hired in they made us go on multiple sites and submit reviews on how great the company was etc. Which of course you are not going to write a bad review with your boss looking over your shoulder. Just another example of the morals behind this company. In short trust me when i tell you do not work for this company. They preach values and ethics to their clients and employees but actions speak much louder than words and their actions never follow thru with what they preach.

Pros

I have been with the company over 4 years and have been presented with numerous opportunities for growth and advancement. Performance is rewarded and upward mobility and organic growth is preached. Every employee is given every opportunity to succeed at Spark Talent. The best part about working here is the team atmosphere and camaraderie with the employees. They will provide you with the key to open the door to your future, the question is, are you going to open that door and walk through it.

Cons

The toughest part about this job is keeping up with the fast pace. I found this as a positive as it pushed me to personally become more organized and versed within staffing.

Pros

Having a full time job

Cons

The company as a whole
