Pros

- flexible hours - good pay - potential to make good commission - small team

Cons

-training is terrible when it comes to sales- they try to teach people how to sell but they themselves don’t really have any idea how to do it. Prospecting was a joke, and they really struggle to keep clients on board. - lack of access to resources to help with prospecting, selling and closing - management is toxic and unprofessional - people will get yelled out for no reason and you will be expected to keep your mouth shut about it - people get in trouble for not being able to work after hours - zero diversity - everything is done “old school”. There is little change that has been done since recruiting became a thing and vertex is behind - there is no Hr so even if you are being harassed or taken advantage of you don’t have anyone to tell - zero growth opportunities - skills you learn here are useless. You’ll learn more from working elsewhere I promise.

Pros

Supportive environment Management willing to foster learning and growth Competitive commission structure Boutique Firm - small enough to feel a part of a cohesive team, not a number in a corporation

Cons

Nothing to share at the moment. My time at Vertek will always be looked at in a positive-light. I would not be where I am in my career today if it wasn't for the willingness to teach me a new skillset and help me foster it into a career.

Pros

Great initial phone training. Friendly long term recruiters do a great job of training new recruiters to the best of their abilities.

Cons

THEY READ EMPLOYEE EMAILS ALMOST DAILY. So just know they are watching everything you send. Forced long hours, with incredibly annoying micro-managers in the form of industry has-beens clinging to the way staffing was done in 1998. Terrible commission structure compared to industry standards (I have recruited in multiple offices and have seen the difference first hand between an office that wants you to make money vs. one that wants you to make THEM money). Vertek hires green recruiters, promises the moon, provides no technical training, and then is quick to release those that don't quickly catch on. Their sales strategy is dated and their cold calling strategy from a sales perspective is laughable. This is apparent by taking a look at their inability to sustain clients long-term. They are quickly being left behind by companies that have been in their market for half as long as them.
