Hays Senior Recruitment Consultant Reviews

Pros

very little, they would have a free breakfast once a month but got rid of that.

Cons

Where to start! Base pay is a joke in Dublin (22k) and no commission on the first 8k you bill every month. Bar one or two successful desks, this company has zero clients and is almost universally hated due to previous negative experiences with both clients and candidates. Management will lie to you in interviews and tell you they have tons of clients, then expect you to be a business development expert and land a ton of new clients in your first week. Also, watch out for management, they have zero people management skills & directors openly bully people in the office in front of everyone else as a big joke. On one occasion a Director "made an example of me" by harassing and laughing at me in front of everyone, after receiving an earful on a cold call they forced me to make to a company that had requested we stop contacting them. Please take this from a former employee, if you value your mental health do not work here its beyond toxic.

Pros

Excellent culture and management are super supportive.

Cons

Would be good to work in the office! But that ain't their fault.

Management talk down to you, left to your own devices for weeks at the beginning then told off for doing things wrong, no support, constantly being asked since DAY 1 ‘do you really want to work here?’ Ridiculous statement to be making to staff. Bad environment negative people

Pros

Great place to work; responsibility and accountability

Cons

None, plenty of respect shown at all times
