Pros

Working with recent college grads

Cons

Disclaimer: I speak for the Dallas office exclusively. I could probably host a Ted Talk about how bad this company is. This company is premature in all decisions they make including the decision of moving to the US. This office has brought on over 100 consultants in the last 10 months… There are less than 40 now. I was micromanaged significantly more in this role than I was in high school. The recruitment services they offer are so niche and overpriced it’s nearly impossible to find a customer specific and dumb enough to pay for the services. KPIS are all that is preached. They do not care about you, they want you to become a recruiting robot. My mental health has improved immensely since leaving. Management will literally talk bad about you with each other on Microsoft teams. The “people ops” team provide ABSOLUTELY no value. All they do is harp on you for not hitting your KPIs. We were promised “90-110k OTE”. There may be one person in that office will make more than 70k this year. 42k a year… gimme a break.

Pros

Great environment to learn from talented people. Amazing experience! Young people your age & a positive leadership team pushing you to learn more at all points in your career.

Cons

Specializing is important & going in the role with a certain niche would speed up billing.

Pros

Incentives were good, casual environment, decent growth trajectory and young environment (kind of a con though, everyone too playful with each other)

Cons

Everyone that works together just goes home and hang's out with one another there is no work life balance. Managers micromanage you and pick favorites. They only help the "best workers" improve and then force the rest to quit. Managers also make comments on appearance and get too involved in personal life. They make you feel like you can't take a day off and if you do take one off they ask what you're doing and want to know everything. Most of the people there have been with the company since it started and don't understand how a business should be run because they haven't experienced anything else and think they are better than everyone. I am not the only person that feels this way, people are afraid to speak up because there's no proper HR team.
