Pros

Culture Opportunity Growth Flexibility Truely unlimited income You will see some reviews saying that some people are given "favoritism" or handed deals. That is simply not true. Yes sometimes a recruiter may be fortunate to get into a successful industry or location but do you know what? YOU GET TO CHOOSE WHERE AND WHAT YOU DO! That is the best part about gpac. If something is not going well or if you are not doing well.... YOU can change that. I sit directly next to the number 1 biller in the company. NOTHING has been handed to him. He works extremely hard and reaps the rewards. And everyone has the same ability to succeed. I personally trippled my income my first year on the job. Yes this job is not always the easiest, yes management pushes you to make money. Isn't that the reason you took the job? You will see some reviews about favoritism or unkept promises and maybe some coaching issues. Even if they were true (which they are not) none of them affect how you do in recruiting. You do not need ANYONE but yourself to succeed if you follow the metrics and process that have worked for the Goods for over 30 years.

Cons

I do honestly think there should be a minimum time a recruiter has to be in the business before being promoted to a coach or leadership role. It was a struggle personally joining a team where the coach was clueless. But even with that being said, I started without guidance, without an amazing territory making 1200 a month. I worked my butt off anyways and live a very comfortable and rewarding lifestyle.

Pros

Work from home, but that’s about it.

Cons

Don’t get me wrong - the money can be good. But quite honestly, there is no amount of money in the world that would have made me stay with this company. I made it over a year, and I regret every second of it. The only thing that helped me stay were some of my teammates. It’s an organization built upon greed. How much money can you make me? That’s their mindset. My teammates changed almost weekly. They pitch this “amazing culture.” And it is everything BUT that. Terrible people as coaches, and even worse people in management. Training is a laughing stock. You’d have better luck following a Joe Biden speech than getting any helpful information through the “training”. Then, post training..good luck getting help from your coach. I always got the “I’m too busy, go ask a teammate.” Busy doing what? My coach didn’t run a desk. Anyone other than the actual recruiters (aka the people on the front line) just sit back and collect a pay check. Yea, the $35k deal you just made, 70% of that is going to people who literally do nothing all day but tell you to hurry up and make as many deals as possible. And, might I add that you might not even see a penny of some deals due to the draw you have to pay back. Again, going to people who do nothing. Ahh, and I can’t forget the fact that YOU have to pay for your own tools every month. Which, is insane. If you can’t see that this is all about how much money THEY can get in their pockets..then you might be Stevie Wonder. Good luck getting the companies to pay up at a reasonable time..what’s that you ask? Do they have an accounting team that handles the billing and collecting payment? No. No they don’t. That falls on the recruiter. Be prepared to work OT and not get paid a penny more for it. And if you don’t work OT, you’ll be told you’ll fail. But at least you can have the dignity of knowing you’re helping people right? Wrong. You post fake jobs to lure in candidates. You market fake candidates to lure in companies. When either of those parties ask about said candidate, or said company - you then lie some more and tell them they aren’t available, or the position at the company was filled. My take, if you truly cared about “growing people and companies”..you wouldn’t try to squeeze every single penny out of them, or lie to them over the phone. Don’t waste your time. Go look at all the reviews..look at the dates of the positive reviews. They come in waves due to management posting them. Then take a look at the negative ones..notice how many people click on the “helpful” button at the bottom of the reviews. Tons. Because those are the real, raw reviews of the company.

Pros

work from home (yeah, that's it)

Cons

Ok let's get real, real. Before you interview here let me walk you through the "'pitch". 1. God first, family second, Gpac third. This is bs on every single level. First, they believe they ARE your God and your family.. Second, this faux Christian company spent 8k on an open bar for their Christmas gala. (which is cool and I have no problems with). By the end of the night I saw the toppest top dog of the company get pulled out of a physical fight with a recruiter in the parking lot. multiple top level employees stumbling drunk to their cars to head to the bars. drink, don't drink, I don't care. But for a company that spouts Jesus it's a pretty trashy look. Third, you will have no time for your family. Period. daytime working hours are for archaic recruiting methods making ineffective cold calls. Effective recruiting is expected to be done on your own time. Evenings and weekends. You know, family time. I have witnessed women in tears because they are desperately trying to balance a sick child at home while meeting insane metrics that track useless metrics. In summary, Gpac first, Gpac only, Gpac always. We have a great culture of team players. Lies. Warning ⚠️ This is 100% an old school boys club. The amount of sexist, nasty things I heard on company calls and in company chats online was shocking. They would consistently delete offensive comments from chats as quickly as possible and then pretend it didn't happen. The comments almost always come from "top producers" so the behavior never got addressed. Money is king. Not yours, THEIRS. If you raise any concerns about the culture, you're not a team player. Proven Effective Recruiting Techniques (we've been doing this for 30 years and if you trust the system you will make money) TOTAL CRAP. I'm saying this as a top producer who took home close to 300k in 3 years. Gpac made close to $1 Million from the deals I closed. Do the math. The "system" is 30 years old. This is a point of pride for them. Think. about it. Think about how much the way we hire and look for jobs has changed in the past 5 years. They refuse to acknowledge that CEO's do not answer the phone for unknown numbers in the middle oof a busy day. But God forbid you don't leave 60 vm's every day. When was the last time YOU checked your vm? Yeah, THAT'S the system you are supposed to trust. You can make as much money as you Sorta. AFTER you collect the money from the company you placed with. (yes...you. the recruiter. Because Gpac is too cheap to pay an accountant to collect on accounts. If a company is late paying, your director will start calling and emailing, them? Nope! You! Every. DAY. Until you get Gpac their money. If you work with another Gpac recruiter (they find candidate, you find company), you make 25% of 50% of the fee. Average fee is 20k. That's $2,500 for you before taxes. Most deals take 3 - 4 weeks to put together. That's 3 - 4 weeks working a minimum of 60 hours a week. Then take out health insurance and the $300 a month Gpac makes the employee pay for MANDATORY tools. You just worked your butt off for less than minimum wage. BEFORE you buy the "Wolf of Wallstreet" wrapped in Jesus pitch, I thought you should know.
