Pros

Excellent training and development program, transparent career progression paths and commission structures. Global opportunities.

Cons

Work/life balance can suffer but only because you are working in a high performance culture and everyone is driven to succeed which can sometimes call for late nights in the office.

Pros

Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

Cons

Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
