Pros

The HR team and consultants are supportive, friendly and willing to help.

Cons

I joined Engtal after relocating to Chicago for this role, but the experience was deeply disappointing. I was placed in an underperforming market with minimal support and was expected to deliver quick results. Just as I was nearing a deal, I was unexpectedly dismissed after only a few months, which felt like a strategic move to avoid compensating me for my efforts. Engtal’s promises of career development and stability are misleading, with a high staff turnover rate, especially among recent graduates despite claims to the contrary. Upper management, including the owner, was unhelpful when I sought advice after my dismissal. They refused to assist with advice regarding my apartment lease, with the owner responding, “That’s not Engtal’s problem” leaving me high and dry and burdened with my lease after relocating for the company. Overall, Engtal's business model seems to prioritize short-term results over employee growth, fostering a culture of high turnover with little concern for long-term success. I highly advise potential candidates to conduct thorough research before joining.
