Pros

Get your Birthday off Career progression Basic commission structure (All pretty standard perks really)

Cons

Minimum holidays. Minimum wage/salary. Outdated policies and technology. Mandatory working hours are way over full time working hours. Forced to work full time in the office with no WFH option. Able to WFH throughout lockdown so clearly is possible, just have zero trust for employees to do so now. Constantly moving the goalposts when you’re doing well. Success isn’t rewarded/celebrated, it’s challenged with what you could’ve/can do more. Basic perks, nothing to actually sell the company or entice new employees. If they offered more to sell the company then maybe your birthday off wouldn’t be the companies USP. Management treat you like rubbish, constantly undermining and condescending you. Refer to themselves as ‘family’ but nothing about the company is anything like any family I’ve ever known. The company are obsessed with targets and leaderboards and the customer/people are second to numbers which isn’t right. Contracts are terminated without proper training provided to consultants.

Pros

Overall friendly people at branch level The system keeps you very organised I loved my job (at first)

Cons

I am a good worker but I could not work in that environment and I feel 99% of recruiters would also agree with me! You have to work like a robot and Management/Directors are very toxic Although I was succeeding on my desk, considering the short time I had been there, the whole team was regularly penalised for not making pointless outbound calls to clients that either do not use agency, or the same clients over and over again which gets call volume up yes… however also loses clients interest due to annoyance, You hit your target for calls one day and the next it is raised by 20+ more calls! NO TIME TO DO YOUR ACTUAL JOB Every hour you are told how many calls you have completed No appreciation, you are just a number on a calls chart Not the same job you think you are going into The way candidates were talked about wasn’t professional
