WunderLand Group Reviews

Pros

Recruiter is there for you every step of the way - from salary negotiations to getting you that interview. They assist with your resume as well - don't be lazy about it. They tell you what you need on there and then YOU fix it. They speak to you before the interview & afterwards. Any problems on site? They are there for you - just 1 call/email away. Even tho they are not based in NY, they made an effort to come to the sites they work at the most. No worries about your paycheck! The person who handles payroll is also one step away. Very rare to have recruiters who take YOU & their JOB seriously. I would highly recommend. Last but not least - they really do place marketing creatives in good well paying positions.

Cons

They don't have NYC offices and it would be great if they had more job offerings within the city and not Long Island. No benefits or pto till after 1000 hours -insurance is expensive. But then again it is a freelance company right?

Pros

Smaller, growing company where you can see the impact of your efforts. Values integrity, creativity (problem-solving), having a positive attitude and collaboration. Excellent work/life balance. Given autonomy, flexibility and trust. There is not one way to do things and there is always a better way! High value on employee engagement and morale. Nature of the staffing business and company age provides personal + professional growth opportunities and fulfilling/challenging work. All these pros contribute to how our internal staff interacts with clients & candidates. Good reputation.

Cons

Start-up culture is not for everyone - requires being open to change, trying new things, contributing outside of your defined role. Process and infrastructure are evolving. Not for someone who needs intense structure and hands-on management.

Pros

I got to meet some nice people through the contract job.

Cons

Wunderland placed me in a contract job that couldn't be the farthest from what I wanted or what my work reflected. They positioned this opportunity as a great experience; that I would have the chance to make my mark and after a few months of working in this environment I realized that was not the case. Instead I landed in an unchallenging, incapable of change, environment where people are scared to suggest change for fear of getting let go. I befriended several other contractors who came in through Wunderland several months prior to me and had expressed the same concerns, to Wunderland, that this contract job was not the way they described it to them. Based on this I have the opinion that Wunderland glossed over these details and just like every other placement agency, only cared about making money off the talent.

Pros

The people who work at WunderLand are truly caring, engaged and collaborative! There is a ton of expertise within the group, and the company does let individuals play to their strengths. There is also a work/life balance in the company that some agencies shy away from. The Management wants to help continue the growth of the team and their is an authentic mutual respect.

Cons

The processes are being developed, so someone at this point will have to be agile and go with the changes (that will hopefully build on our ability to be the best in the business).

Pros

Smart, engaged, & fun colleagues. Excellent work/life balance with flexible schedule opportunities. Everyone genuinely cares about each others successes and push each other in a very positive way. We are small and niche and that allows us to develop great relationships with both our clients and our talent. Incredibly low turnover. Super collaborative and just overall a great place to go to everyday!

Cons

We growing, and sometimes that comes with some growing pains!
