Pros

If you're a top biller that can rebuild your client base quickly after leaving another agency you'll do well. Great if you like autonomy over yourself and can self manage your workload effectively. A mixture of health conscious people and people who like to go out and have fun - balance. Some managers are very focused on the people and mean well. If you can hit your set target, you will do well and get promoted.

Cons

The business isn't diverse (which was important to me) - top level management had 3 people from ethnic minorities out of 30 people. Their attrition of leavers outside of management reflect this too across women and ethnic minorities. The handling of redundancies - I was made redundant - was terrible across the business (not because of HR - they really did their best and are amazing) the communication and lack of transparency across the business in months prior wasn't as candid as it could've been. The manager that you have will differentiate on the support that you get because they prioritise different things. The process for every candidate isn't the same - which isn't unusual in agency but can be frustrating for internal TA. Initially when I started I was asked to put a positive review on here which I didn't and glad I didn't because it doesn't give you a true depiction of the company. Some of the reviews of the business on here are exactly that.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Work hours as you don’t really work the US market times due to the fact that they get you on morning UK calls as well. Unlimited leave is a pipe dream as nobody takes leave and they make passive aggressive comments when you do. The most controlling environment I’ve ever worked in. A true lack of freedom..

Pros

Good hardworking recruiters going above and beyond

Cons

Just avoid this business, it's all smoke and mirrors. You'll be promised the moon during interview stage, all lies. It's unlike any agency that I've worked for, in the worst possible way. So many things that I could scare you off with, but the contracts have a lot of gagging orders -don't say that you haven't been warned.
