Pros

multicultural environment and some decent people.

Cons

This was by far the worst company I've worked at. At first it was fine (alot of fakeness) but you quicky come to learn of their horrible managment and alot of favouratism in the company. People are ONLY praised on their numbers and nothing else like leadership skills, social impact etc. You're micromanaged, the way you should speak to clients and candidates, the tone you need to use, what you should and shouldn't say. No recognition, and you're always compared to people who stay working over time.

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback. We've recently been impacted by Covid-19 and had to make adjustments to salaries, commissions and employees as most employers have in Barcelona. If you'd like to discuss your experience with MA confidentially, please get in contact. Wishing you the best, Matt

Pros

Only the flexibility, Remote working if you are based in the uk

Cons

This is a toxic, male-dominated company led by a narcissistic CEO. Feedback from employees is not taken into account, and performance doesn’t seem to matter unless you align yourself with management. Women in particular appear to be undervalued and not given equal opportunities for advancement. I would not recommend this company, as the experience can be extremely demoralizing and may even make you want to leave the recruitment industry altogether
