-8:30am meetings every morning to go over your numbers like sheep (could be consolidated to one meeting once a week but no) ..gets very old very fast
-the "training" program is a series of boring webinars and powerpoints
-pretty hard to be successful if you don't have prior experience in whatever industry you're staffing for (FA/tech/etc) .. you need pre-existing contacts in the field
-clients are pretty rude to you or extremely boring to talk to
-the work itself is glorified telemarking. cold calls, emails and linkedin messages all day long begging people to meet with you in exchange for free coffee, donuts, etc
-they give constant "motivational" speeches to pump you up but if you have half a brain you can see right through it
-turnover is incredibly high, so many people left (including management) during my time there
-they will tell you it takes two years to "ramp up", but fire people after 6 months if they're struggling
-leadership makes you participate in "gauntlets" which in simply to inspire competition between sales ppl
-you have to work incredibly long hours to be successful (7:30-6 at least)
-unless you get lucky and get a great client, finding business will be pretty hard
-management makes you stalk people and call their personal cell phones to get meetings, as you can imagine, clients do not react well to this
-classic burn and churn sales role
-basically you have to be a brain dead "yes man" to be able to do this day in and day out and not want to die
