The Judge Group

Most of the branches are pretty ok at judge, but working for healthcare in the corporate office (conshy) is extremely stressful.  In the past year alone they have gone through two internal recruiters which you would think is a bad sign since now the managers themselves are doing the internal recruiting.  

Some account managers are very high strung, and those who run the office treat the recruiters like a number.  Most recruiters have to bend/break the rules to meet quotas mainly out of fear for being yelled at.  These recruiters work extremely hard, and at least 45 hours a week not including all the work from home to keep up with the cycle.

They say the pay scale is competitive, however it is pretty basic compared to other firms, honestly 32,000 (about 13 bucks an hour...) after you get your bachelors is really low.  I feel like they are taking advantage of students coming right out of college. The commission plan is ok but its very rare to make anything noticeable in commission until after six months. The promotions they run are fairly difficult to hit, one recruiter out of thirty might get a small gift for hitting a quota. 

As recruiters we've been yelled at, and cursed at for things that we cannot control such as a candidate taking another job, not showing for their interview despite telling us they would, etc.  Again kicking you while you are down.  Since they try to motivate by fear, most people are too scared of losing their job to report anything.  

If you are recently graduated and have few other options, then get some experience there and get out.  

Hardest part of the job - hitting the quota.

Most enjoyable part - the recruiters and recruiting managers are nice people, but they are being taken advantage of.  The Judge family and executives seem like genuine people, though you dont hear much from them.

I only worked for Judge briefly. I started in the month of January and by resigned by May. I quickly realized how much I despised this place. By February I began looking for a new job. The office I worked in was very tiny (the size of a small closet). I worked with 3 other people in this closet. The girls I worked with were very mean and extremely rude. They would talk about you the second you walked out of a room and would stop the moment you returned. They were fake nice when you would try to talk to them. I never in my life felt so alone and excluded. I made every attempt to get along with them but they simply wouldn’t have it. I was often pulled into HR to discuss my work attire. There was a strict dress code there but only for certain people. I was in trouble for wearing black suede boots and a military style jacket yet my coworker was permitted to wear a denim jacket and cowboy boots. A lot of the women there would also wear micro miniskirts where I could see more than I wanted to yet my dresses were too short according to HR cause they didn’t cover my knees. The place was very “clicky”. It was like being back in High School. You were either a popular kid or a nerd. I tried to fit in but was pushed out every time I tried. It was very hurtful. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough! 

And if you like to have time off from work, forget about it! This company does not allow anyone to take unpaid time off and the accrual rate of time off is a joke. Your 1st year you get 3 days! 

Also, the benefits are probably some of the worst I have ever seen. For a large company, they have horrible health benefits. You will literally be working there for just benefits but never get to use them because the deductibles are so high.

A best typical day at work would include all tools needed to do job.
Reliable and consistent training program.
A focused but fair manager who has ability to listen, train, set standards and uphold them for entire workforce.
A work environment that promotes good internal communication atmosphere as well as a good external communication environment.
Most enjoyable days at work is when I know I've helped a client/patient and was able to supply them with needed help and resources keeping with company policies and guidelines.
The hardest part of doing a good job is when there is not a warm friendly work environment and when leadership does not promote that standard.  Creation of a stern work environment that does not ey put emphasis on making sure new hires and old hires are operating on the same guidelines, policies, and standards.  Training is key and having a manager that does not feel threatened and is open always create a better work environment. .
I always leave a job location with a new friend.  Peer collaboration is important.
I love to be able to walk away from a job with new knowledge.


JUDGE GROUP IS A VERY PROFESSIONAL, THOROUGH, PLACEMENT AGENCY.  RECRUITERS ARE VERY SUPPORTIVE.
STARS ARE FOR JUDGE GROUP. 

THIS REVIEW PERTAINS TO THE COMPANY I WAS PLACED WITH - WHICH IS A LARGE INSURANCE COMPANY.  WISCONSIN TEAM NOT GREAT TO WORK WITH. FOUND OTHER TEAM MEMBERS IN MIDWEST MUCH MORE OPEN AND NONE BIASED.

Judge is a staffing agency. They staff nurses for lots of different jobs all over the place, so keep in mind this is related to my personal job. I have almost no interaction with Judge beyond they give me a paycheck. All I can comment on regarding Judge is my communication, support, and level of pay. My day-to-day experience has nothing to do with them, it only has to do with where I am placed.

The pay is generous in my role, benefits are at least there if you want them, but aren't great, communication with my recruiter could be better, but considering I barely have to talk to them it isn't a big deal. This review has a lot to do with my specific job which I am reluctant to share. I honestly don't need to interact with Judge much. There is not room for advancement as they just staff people for certain temporary or semi-permanent positions. I really cannot complain at all about them for a stop-gap job. I work with people who are staffed by different agencies and Judge definitely is among the best for this type of work. Your workplace experience will definitely vary depending on where you are placed. However, for my role, their pay is among the highest, and if you do your job fine you will have no issues with Judge themselves. Your only concern is where you are placed. Give them a shot if you need some stop-gap work.

I was contacted by Judge group by a recruiter who said they had found a job that matched with my skills for a Supervisor role in a remote Call Center. I asked them how secure the job was because I was working another full time remote job that I loved but it was a temporary contract job. The recruiter said that he could guarantee I would have the job for at least 3 years. Then 2 days later he said they had just gotten another project on the same contract and it would last up to 4 years. I accepted the role based on this.
After starting the job the client took control of myself and other contracted employees and adding double the amount of required tasks that was previously being done by client employees. 
Barely 3 months into the job I received a blanket email with others that was impersonal and just said unfortunately there will be a reduction in force and gave the last date of employement-2 weeks. 
When I tried to contact Judge and contract manager and my recruiter I got no responses to text, voicemail or emails. 
Big disappointment to be made to feel like you are just a number and to falsely represent a job especially when our livelihood is dependent on income and  being able to make an informed decision based on untrue information. 
I wouldn't recommend it merely on the those facts. 

This company started out great. The bigger it grew, the worse it got. They pushed out older management and brought in new, young, egotistical "bosses". They have demolished the work hard play hard value they preach and it has become play hard only. The environment is very toxic with foul, crude, vulgar language and tacky, offensive jokes. 

The potential to make money is absolutely here if you are ok stepping on people and breaking rules to do so. You will sacrifice a lot to make money. This company does not care about loyalty, previous victories, or what you have accomplished long term. It is all about what you did in the last 24 hours. You are expected to be responsive to management, clients and consultants 24/7. They have 1 person doing about 4 positions. There is no such thing as "leaving work" since you are expected to work from your phone or personal lap top when out of the office. There is no such thing as PTO as no one is ever able to cover for you.

They have turned the company from the "Family Owned" business they "pride" themselves on to a sheep game. It is really sad to see how money and growth  took over the ethics that got the company to that point. I would be very weary to believe the way they sell themselves as a differentiator by being "privately owned family business". They are no different.

I was offered a job and told a start date so I gave notice with a job I'd been with for almost two years and moved to Cleveland, TN to start the new job.  Now I'm not a wealthy person so I was nervous moving, but the recruiter told me I had to be at the location I'd be working out of to get my drug screen done so I moved two days prior to my scheduled start date.  The day before I was scheduled to start training (after much back and forth between me and the recruiter) I was told that the date had been postponed a week.  After that I receive a call a week later from a different recruiter and told that I'd be starting the very next day.  Considering I had still not received any of the necessary equipment I was told to expect this was surprising, but I have a personal computer etc. I am able to use so I told them not a problem.  THEN I receive an email (ONCE AGAIN THE DAY BEFORE A SCHEDULED START DATE) from yet a different recruiter saying that the start date is postponed until the following week and to keep an eye out for the equipment that their IT Team is sending.  For me this company has been UNPROFESSIONAL, UNORGANIZED, INCONSIDERATE, and totally without compassion for a working father and husband.

I really liked the people and management I worked with, and overall it was a positive environment with great benefits and fun team activities. My reason for leaving mainly came down to growth opportunities and communication surrounding them.
When I started, I was told there would be opportunities in the near future to cross train into a more engaging role with additional responsibilities and commission potential. Since I often had downtime during the day, it sounded like a great fit and something I was excited to work toward. Over time, though, every time I followed up, I kept getting responses like “maybe,” “I’ll talk to so-and-so,” or other vague answers, but nothing ever actually moved forward.
After more than a year, I finally spoke with someone more senior about my frustrations and found out that the role I had been led to believe would be opening up soon was not really on the table for the foreseeable future. At that point, it became clear that I had likely been told what I wanted to hear rather than given realistic expectations. I don’t think there was bad intent behind it, but the repeated promises and lack of follow-through ultimately led me to leave.

Most days are routine, consisting of a daily status meeting and well defined tasks using Agile Methodology.  Majority of time is spent with program development and maintenance, and either testing, or supporting testing staff.  

Never used Agile Methodology before, or MFE program development.  Have also had the chance to write some complicated DB2 SQL.  

Supervisors at the client site have treated me well, and with respect. They have been very considerate with work schedule for things like doctor appointments and family commitments.

Co-workers at the client site have been great to work with, and most are very knowledgeable.

The hardest part has been not being a real participant in the culture at my current assignment, due to status as a contractor.  I have no contact with Judge Group home office employees, and the only person I have contact with is my sales representative, who fortunately has been great to be associated with.   

The best part is not being on call for the first time in my work life.
