Pros

I love having Cassie as my recruiter. She was super helpful in resolving concerns with an offer and helping me get what worked for me. She always keeps tabs on how I’m doing and is fun to talk to. It’s nice to not dread a call coming in from a recruiter😆

Cons

I don’t really care for their insurance benefits
