Net Polarity Inc

-Lowest paying company ever. This is not slander or an exaggeration. The company itself makes money, but all of it gets divided among the owner and the select few that made it up to management. That accounts for about 5-6 people. The rest gets paid in scrap change so the higher ups can stuff their pockets. -Micromanaged to the point that it causes hair loss... usually because you're spending a few hours a day pulling them out of their roots. There is an individual that just sits in the downstairs office and sends out harassing emails all day about this metric or that metric. You will spend more time in this office tracking your metrics and your numbers and answering to the micromanaging than you will actually be working. -The turnover at this place is absurd. Mostly due to the two reasons stated above, basically everyone wants to get out by their first month on the floor. This is a company located in the heart of silicon valley, but they pay you the equivalent of a Vietnamese sweatshop and you're miserable at work because there's more micromanaging at this job than a boiler room. To top it off, it's so miserable here that everyone basically regrets ever having started at this company... which brings me to my next point... ...They have this clause in their employment contract that states that if you quit within the first 12 months, you will have to pay them 10k for the ""training"" they provided you. They just want to hire a person, give them the ""training"" to lock them in for a year with the fear of a 10k reprisal, milk them for most of what they'll earn, and pay them next to nothing. It's a dirty, dishonorable fear tactic because the president is a greedy little coward who wants to keep all the profits they generate for themselves. To sum it up: I've worked in some great places, some not so great places, some really bad places, and Netpolarity. One of my former employers received a 1.5/5.0 from the Better Business Bureau for how they treat their employees. After working at Netpolarity, I would gladly give that former employer a 5.0 in comparison. During my tenure at Netpolarity, I had a friend who was laid off from a tech company, and his unemployment checks were larger than my paychecks from Netpolarity. more

Netpolarity instills a contract for a year. If you leave willfully in that time period you will owe them $10,000 for training costs. I know it is unfair, but this is the truth that happens behind close doors. The CEO acts as an entitled king and makes sure his peasants obey him. Fear is permeated throughout the corridors of this institution. David Chuang decides to sue people in order to scare his employees to compliance. Please do not go there and get paid 1/4 of what the industry is truly paying. There are many other less demeaning and infuriating means towards success in the recruiting industry. more

This is the a horrible company to work for their pay rates are lower than anyplace i have working in a similar role. They try to sell you on the salary by selling the commission plan but you make next to nothing in commission. The top recruiter at the company makes about 75k a year, and in my opinion that is very low for a top recruiter. They also micro manage their employees to the point that it makes you want to pull your hair out. They have the wife of the owner working in the back office sending out rude emails about metrics but because she is in the back office she has no idea about what is going on with any of the jobs she is complaining about. So you have to stop working and send he updates on all the jobs you are working on just to keep her quite for the rest of the day. The President of the company has a model in place that does not work at all. The only reason that the company has not gone out of business is because he has some smart people working for him who do things their own way and tell him they do it his way. They also expect ridiculous amounts of activity on the jobs you work on. For example they want you to submit 4 qualified candidates a day, this equates out to 80 subs in a month (at most companies it would be about 10-2 subs a day) . Also they will never give you a raise, they do performance reviews but only to find any number you might not be hitting and tell you to hit it. Even if you hit all your numbers you will not get a raise or even just a good job and a pat on the back. In the long run you will either quit because you found something better or get fired for looking for something better (but they will say it is about performance) or you will lose all your ambitions and end up working there for years miserable and just waiting to die. If you are smart you will take my advice from my experience and not ever take a job there or even interview it will be the worst mistake you will make in your career. Pros: Almost none Cons: Ugh see below. more
