Drax Executive Reviews

- Exec team completely ruthless but also make a lot of poor decisions. People with sense can't afford to challenge them - Many people leave, want to leave or are fired/made redundant - Given it's a recruitment firm, hiring/firing/promotion decisions are very questionable - They're trying to get better at learning and development but wasting time/effort on it - ultimately you learn on the job but also means the firm as a whole lacks an idea of best practice - In terms of products, PACE is OK but its other ones are fundamentally flawed - everybody knows but can't say it out loud - CRM system is horrific - it's slow, clunky, non-sensical, and not built for headhunting - means searches can't be done with best practice (and people who've never been in other search firms don't get that)

- Extremely toxic culture - A lot of lying - don't believe what they tell you in the interview - People talking behind other people's backs - No real HR function - Don't know how to manage people
