I recently had the opportunity to work at a company that can only be described as a fun and productive work environment. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted by a vibrant and energetic atmosphere that made me excited to start my day.

One of the things that stood out to me about this company is the emphasis they place on fostering a positive and enjoyable workplace. The office is filled with laughter, collaboration, and a sense of camaraderie among the team members. There are regular team-building activities and social events that not only help build strong relationships but also create a sense of unity and belonging.

Despite the fun-filled environment, this company also prioritizes productivity. The work is challenging and stimulating, with ample opportunities for growth and development. The management team encourages creativity and innovation, providing the necessary resources and support to help employees excel in their roles. There is a strong sense of purpose and everyone is motivated to contribute their best work.

Overall, my experience at this company has been nothing short of amazing. The combination of a fun and energetic atmosphere along with a focus on productivity has created a work environment that is both enjoyable and fulfilling. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a workplace where they can thrive both professionally and personally.

Really enjoyed my time with Agile 1 and was disappointed when I was laid off due to Covid-19.  The challenge of the opportunity almost always lies with the client company.  If they are not cooperative, or their recruiting team is resistant to the advantages an RPO offers, you are going to be swimming upstream.  

I found their immediate management teams either hit r miss in quality.  My first manager was outstanding - one of the top managers I have ever worked for.  Clear communications, transparent in his expectations, solid at creating the infrastructure required to be successful.  My second and third manager I found irresponsible. and in one case flighty.   They knew the right buzzwords required to sound like they were competent, but had no idea how to execute.  They made the job more difficult.

I would return to Agile 1 in a minute. for the right opportunity.  

This company is the worst company ever.  They don't take care of their employees and there is a ton of turnover.  The Director and Senior Director are best friends. So you can't go to upper management or HR with any type of concern because they are all friends.  The directors are both incompetent and they don't know anything about the MSP industry.  I don't even know why they were hired because they are very narrow-minded and not knowledgable AT ALL.  The director is a bully, she's manipulative, a micromanager, petty, and a walking contradiction.  No one on the team likes her and we are too afraid to speak out because she's best friends with the Senior Director and HR.

The directors are foul individuals.  They are also breaking federal laws.  The IT Stakeholders can't stand the Director of Operations and the Senior Director continues to protect her because they are best friends.

The director of operations doesn't want to see anyone succeed, she takes credit for people's ideas and passes it off as her own.  The director of operations has a crab in a barrel mentality.

I have found my time with Agile to be a huge waste of time. Most recruiters and sourers are inexperienced. There isn't any formal training to learn processes and procedures. Basically you shadow a bunch of recruiters for a day or two. 

Management is one big clique. Management is inexperienced and poorly trained as well. Their management team doesn't even know the accounts they are responsible for. The higher up you go in the chain of command the worst it gets. 

This job is a dead end with poor/expensive benefits and "unlimited PTO" that is so difficult to take it's not even worth it. 

Management is away on group trips, conferences and bonding group activities every month while employees are never, not ever involved in any activities outside of cold calling and running the accounts that make Agile money. 

Agile provides no enrichment or incentives to their employees and are then offended when employees don't want to participate in activities like "employee slide" presentations. 

I worked for AgileOne as a contractor and full time Senior recruiter on one of their RPO accounts. This was a remote position. I loved what I did until getting a new manager who was basically nonexistent and when she did make an appearance it was only to berate and scold. Additionally, when a promotion was up for grabs and several senior recruiters had applied after building the relationship with the RPO client (4 recruiters working 50+ hours a week to meet goals and deadlines) the promotion was given to a new hire that had just started a month prior. 
During my time at AgileOne I never knew who to contact with HR questions and never learned anything more about the company than the “bubble” I was in with my team. 

This is a recruiting business. And if you are a recruiter, you are in a good spot. But for those of us that are supporting the recruiters in ALL other forms, don't expect too much. 

There is much lip service about inclusion and family, and team. That is what it is, lip service. The reality is they will use you until you are worn out and then wonder why you are not doing more, even though you have worked over 50hrs during the week. 

It doesn't matter how many years you have in your field, and what matter of SME you bring to the table, if you are not a recruiter, expect to be in the bottom 10% of the pay scale. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part was the support from peers and tenured leaders. New leadership and HR not helpful or supportive at all. More demanding and micromanaging. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Micromanagement and leadership not being knowledgeable. Management taking subordinates work and presenting as their own.  Very low salary and no work life balance. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment was great initially but under new leadership it became very toxic! 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Nonstop meetings and overview with managers of the task you complete.

AgileOne starts out recruiters in contract roles with the promise that employees will be evaluated for permanent positions at the 6 month mark. I have been working at AgileOne for one year without any positions available. In my contract role I have poor benefits and no PTO. When I was sick with Covid I had to choose between working while I was too sick to stomach food or missing my rent payment. Do not work here unless you are desperate for a job. If you do work here, I recommend applying for other positions every couple of weeks so that you can find something with stability.

You will be working anywhere between 60 - 80 hours a week regardless of what contract or account you are assigned. Their favorite things to say are "Flex Lead" and "Take it out of a friday", meaning that if you're a "flex lead", you are doing all the work of a Lead but not being paid for it and you're told to take anything over 40 hours out of a Friday of you're choosing. However, that Friday will not be approved. 

At the end of the day, they will always ask for more. 




I worked at AgileOne for eight years and had a great run. This company was extremely supportive of my three maternity leaves and my need to balance life and work as long as I followed through and delivered. I had three supervisors during this time and they were all excellent leaders. 
When I started at AgileOne, remote work seemed risky, but they were a leader and ahead of the curve on this trend.
