Pros

- My team was cordial to work with and my Manager was supportive - Company perks and snacks were nice - Had a few options to up-skill some basic skills - Was able to get a better offer afterwards in a different industry

Cons

- Lack of cultural awareness for other regions - SVP was challenging to work with and new ideas were not welcomed during meetings - HR and LD team were acting more as a PR team for the company, instead of attacking the issues in the culture of the company or trying to "energize" others. -Deceptive hiring processes where the contract is not clearly stated in the original document sent to hiring recruiters. When showing this to the SVP and hiring manager, I was called "not a team player" and "no other company would be able to offer me something similar".

Pros

Rapid Progression & Recognition: Performance is directly rewarded here. If you hit your goals and show drive, the path to promotion and career growth is transparent and fast. Strong Team Culture: The team energy is fantastic. Everyone is highly collaborative, supportive, and commercially minded, which makes for a great working environment. High Autonomy: From day one, you are given real ownership over your projects (like leading recruitment events, managing candidates, and driving partnerships), allowing you to grow your commercial skills rapidly.

Cons

High Velocity & Pressure: The work is very fast-paced with strict timelines and high-volume expectations. It is not a place where you can coast, and you need to be comfortable working under commercial pressure. Resilience is Key: Sourcing and recruiting require a great deal of resilience. You have to be comfortable with rejection and persistent in finding creative solutions to hit your targets.

Pros

The team culture here is what keeps me around. People genuinely want to help each other do well, and it feels collaborative in a way that's hard to find elsewhere. What I've appreciated most is how much autonomy you get over your own career. I've been able to take on responsibility early, learn a ton, and grow quickly without anyone holding me back.

Cons

It's fast-paced and the bar is high. You've got to be comfortable figuring things out as you go. But honestly, if you like being challenged and want to develop fast, it's a great place to do that.
