      Very sad story - Anonymous employee First Advantage Employee Review

      Pros

      Not much to write here. Some good people are sticking it out despite the pending layoffs. Pto and decent benefits may be why...

      Cons

      Offshore's pretty much every department. This crushes background screening accuracy, client services and overall turn around-times. Got rid of almost every good hardworking person who built the brand name. The florida office which built this company is now about the size of storage trailer. Pay extremely low for the industry. Total poor leadership across the board with no communication.

      Pros

      Remote first company Once out of operations you really manage your own time.

      Cons

      Excessive Workloads Poor choice in Team Leads Don’t get sick and if you do pray it doesn’t last longer than your FMLA 12 weeks because they will fire you! Even after 8 years of employment. Even when it is documented that they are responsible for the health issues caused by burnout!
