Pros
I am struggling to think of anything positive... Working here would probably make you more reticent and resilient
Cons
- no work life balance, it's like you have to sell your soul and live and breathe the place - work hours are minimum 8.30-6.30... I followed these hours and think it was frowned upon that I wasn't coming in earlier and staying later - you are expected to not take lunch - it's all about the aggressive hard sell and highly unethical selling to clients/candidates - suits grads who have never worked anywhere else - terrible database and hardly any candidates. You can't use their system for searches - it's woeful. - it's all about cold calling and cold calling the same person again and again. Your phone time is completely monitored - you are supposed to be on the phone minimum of four hours a day!!!! It's pointless and you are annoying people - just general awful culture, it's like a pressure cooking. You will succeed if you have no shame, don't mind applying questionable sales techniques, don't mind working like a dog and giving you life up to them - the bonus system.... The pooled bonus system is very ambiguous... For all the hours and stress and micro management the bonuses aren't great
