you can make a lot of money (as you can in any agency)

Minpunten

Unfortunately, Altis has become a company where employees are treated more like numbers than individuals. While meeting KPIs is expected, there’s an unspoken pressure to constantly exceed expectations—without clear guidance on what “above and beyond” actually means. Constructive feedback is rare; instead, the focus tends to be on what you’ve done wrong, with little to no positive reinforcement. The culture has also grown increasingly invasive, with personal boundaries often dismissed or undermined. If you choose to protect your privacy or assert limits, you may find yourself slowly pushed out, leaving you feeling undervalued and discouraged. What was once a great company with strong leadership has shifted focus toward profit, relying on occasional social events to mask a work environment that no longer feels supportive or respectful.

Thank you for your thoughtful input. It’s difficult to reply to some of the statements about boundaries or being asked to go above and beyond. We’d be very open to a call if you want to talk it through. It’s true that the company has evolved, and would venture to say that most firms of any size and any industry are in the shift of their lives. The economic situation demands that we strive more than ever to be excellent, to surpass our clients’ expectations. We are emphasizing process and active participation in every single job order, and the KPIs that align to good service. It’s disappointing to hear that you were not given clear guidance as we are working continually to be clear and coach to success. It's also true that wonderful people have moved on to other things, in the industry or outside it. This has been a time of huge movement in HR, talent acquisition, payroll and recruitment roles. I’m sure you’re seeing this too among friends and on LinkedIn. There’s been a lot of repositioning and we’re not immune to it. Two things can be true at the same time: we have many great people loving their role and future, we have some great people who are seeking something different. We support them in this journey and wish them a beautiful career. After exploring the market, some may return to us in the future as some already have returned. We’re open. As for profit over people, this is not accurate. Margins in the staffing sector are challenging, and to the contrary, we have retained and developed people over profit. Not to be demonstrated on this platform, but our data is clear that we are prioritizing the right hiring, the right retention, the right learning and coaching, and the right promotions. It’s not easy, but I assure you that just because we are asking people to give their best, doesn’t mean that we don’t value them. Quite the opposite. A good reminder here in your comments: we have to continue to express gratitude and coach our team members for their continued success, and be sure that our asks are well understood. We have to ensure that we continue to communicate our financials for transparency (as we do routinely in our All Hands). Every role is so important and we may need to do more to link our goals to the outcomes, and vice versa. We appreciate that you took the time to share your thoughts. You know my cell number, and our leader’s email and cell, please feel free to reach out. Kathryn, Owner & Co-Founder

Altis is honestly one of those rare places where the culture isn’t just something they talk about, it’s something you feel every day. The people are kind, supportive, and genuinely invested in each other’s success. Leadership puts a lot of thought into every decision, and it shows. You never feel like “just an employee”, they really do care about you as a person, your growth, and your goals. There’s always change happening, but it comes from a genuine desire to improve and evolve. The pace is quick, but that's the exciting part - you know the company is always trying to level up. What I love most is the balance: yes, there are goals to hit, but it never feels like numbers come before people. Instead, you’re encouraged to succeed while also being supported, appreciated, and given the space to grow. You know your contributions matter, no matter what level you’re at, and that sense of purpose makes it easy to stay engaged and excited about the work.

Minpunten

Nothing to mention, thank you.

One of the more reputable recruiting firm. From the first meeting you could really sense they're overall professionalism. The entire recruiting process was thoroughly explained. Having dealt with many recruiters in the past I can safely say they're one of the better ones. Everyone that I've touched based with at Altis was extremely professional in not only providing information, but also providing constant updates to the recruiting process. Definitely would recommend them to any of my colleagues in the industry. Give them a try and I'm sure you'll be blown away by their services.

Minpunten

Some team members are more responsive than others
