Pros

Great team Good people in the office Good rewards for hard work Good potential for progression Great opportunities Clearly a higher class recruitment company compared to the competition

Cons

It is a really long day, an hours lunch should be encouraged to be spent away from the desk. I think 5.30 would be ok to leave
