Pros

Good colleagues Alright work-life ratio - if you meet your target

Cons

Targets are increased year on year based on performance, making the bonus harder to reach Amount of commission percentage does not increase with the increased targets Lack of proper and continuous training/development/coaching Very specific demarkation - You can be unlucky and have a less than active desk compared to some colleagues

Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience with Faststream. A good work-life balance is very important to us. Increasing targets is standard within the sales industry, and our commission scheme has been re-structured in the last couple of years. We have a People & Quality Director dedicated to training and development. Demarcation is important for things to work smoothly, and yes there are less active desks than others, but I feel we offer support in these situations and I’ve moved consultants regularly to warmer desks if we think it will help. Once again thank you for your feedback. Kind Regards Martin Bennell Managing Director

Pros

The Houston office has a great team that is knowledgable of the Maritime industry and is in tune in finding candidates and clients whats hot on the market. The atmosphere is truly a sales floor with senior recruiters that are always looking out to help and improve on weekly and monthly goals. If you are willing to give 100% and have the drive and desire to succeed in sales, this is the place to be. It is a hard working office with the ability to develop your own brand as a recruiter. Daily support from the South Hampton office is great.Compensation and benefits are good. Overall a great place to work.

Cons

I have nothing bad to say about the company. The were fully supportive in training me and helped me improve on my weaknesses in sales. The only reason I left was due to my desire to go back to seagoing job.
