Jackson and Coker

Saturated industry- too many others doing the same thing, you only stand out by price. They dangle the carrot of what you CAN make, but it's very hard to get there.
Quantity is preferred over quality - don't try to be "strategic" here, it's not really possible.
Out of date technology- nothing is automated. Be prepared to spend hours hunting down the candidates you sent as leads to senior recruiters to see if that candidate/doctor got an interview, got the job etc. Then be sure to update your excel sheet so you get paid properly. 
Gossip filled and clicky office- if you don't mind high school like drama, you may be able to handle it here. 
Feedback - Management will ask, but you're best keeping your mouth shut because they WILL use it against you in the future to try and convince you to switch roles or to get you on a performance improvement plan to help you out the door.

Great overall company culture, regardless of being bottom feeders in the locum tenens industry. The president is a great guy with a great vision for the company. The management, though, is entrenched in their ways and are willing to help in name only. Unless you go out partying, you won't be in the cool club, and they'll show you to the door before long. Huge red flag when almost everyone that works there were all referred by an employee. The company harps on about their training system, but does little to prepare you for anything. The recruiters do the majority of the work for less pay than other members, and are blamed if anything goes wrong. The support staff members are great people but can't handle the large volume of workloads they are given, so expect to lose customers do to 11th hour panic. 

Jackson and Coker like to view themselves as a leader in the field of physician recruiting.  They have extensive internet outreach and a program that's handed out to employees that they are the best.  The truth is, they are extremely disorganized, fickle,  unsupportive and actually encourage the younger employees to make dishonest representations about job opportunities that do not exist.   In one instance a colleague was pressured into offering a job to a doctor that did not exist in order to rope him into another position that was more low paying.    You can make money here, but if you want to sleep at night with a good conscience,  this is not for you.

I've been with Jackson & Coker two years.  I felt compelled to write a review because I've never worked anywhere with so many great people who care about your success from the top down to the desk level, it's a culture of success.  I've achieved my goals, and I'm going on a sales trip to Mexico.  The hardest part of the job is the first year - ramping up.  If you are not sales-minded, if you do not strive to win, this is not the place for you.  But if you take the training they give you seriously, if you apply yourself, it is really unlimited income.  I love it here.  I can't imagine working anywhere else.  The most enjoyable part of the job is the great people here.

Great company, great environment, I'm happy.

Jackson & Coker is really a fantastic place to work. They care about their employees and go the extra mile to show it. As a Marketer or Recruiter your job involves a lot of phone calls. If you are willing to put in the time and effort (some late nights) and constantly strive for doing the best job it will be a great place to work for you.

This is an activity based industry and rewards those that go the extra mile. There is very good money to be made by learning the industry and how we (the company) can compliment a client by assiting with our services.

This company has been amazing since day 1 when I started in 2018. At the end of 2019/start of 2020 our new president started and it has only gotten better. My direct leader is wonderful and since joining her team in Jan 2021 my personal development has soared as well as my presence in the company. This is an amazing company who values me and this community. I have participated in many philanthropic events and the company sponsors those as well as my own personal organizations. Everything I work on is a team effort and I feel that people who want to be here do a great job and thrive in this environment. 

If you're young, have no responsibilities,  enjoy repetition,  and want to spend a lot of time working for the "potential" of "great" income, this is the place for you. The fact is, unless you're good friends with the president or are in great favor of those she favors,  your growth, value, and opportunities will be limited.  It's a fickle place and though they talk a big game, they are unable or unwilling to really make changes for the better. They do not lead the industry. They never will, no matter the potential and that is unfortunate.

The only thing I can think of the other people who rated Jackson & Coker poorly is that they were in the wrong job and not a cultural fit.  

They are right...if you are NOT confident, not diligent or HIGHLY motivated by an uncapped earning potential, this probably is not the right place for you.  For the rest of us who like to WIN at everything we set out to do and get rewarded for hard work, come join us; we're growing like mad and hiring the hardest working people in Atlanta. 

Majority Rules and that's why we keep winning Atlanta's Best Place to Work!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The facility has many amenities. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The nasty manager that I worked for. She was hateful and another employee and I quit at the same time before we even had another job. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Employees are great! Management is horrible!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Nose to the grindstone churning out work from 6:00am till 4:00pm without breaks. It still wasn’t good enough and they let you know that every chance they get. I lasted a year, funny because they kept threatening to fire me, why didn’t they then?

Mostly young people in entry level and inside sales work. There's a lot of hyped up enthusiasm for this group and commission based incentives. Support takes a back seat or anyone in billable dept. Not all Jackson companies are created equally and there are big differences in culture from company to company even though they are in the same building.
