Pros

I've been at this company for a few years now and see myself staying on long term. Everyone was kind and welcoming straightaway and provided the training and skills I needed to be successful. Great group of motivated, hard-working, and inspiring people! They are always forward thinking, open to ideas, and try to get the team to really buy into the company - for example, it's an employee owned business.

Cons

Very busy with high standards and more admin than other recruitment agencies. So have to be prepared to work hard!

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it really means a lot to hear that you’ve had such a positive experience here at Joss. We’re proud of the culture we’ve built, and it’s great to know that you’ve felt welcomed, supported, and inspired by the team from day one. I am especially glad you’ve felt the benefit of our training and development approach which we have worked very hard on over recent years. Its also great hear that employee ownership model resonates with you. Creating an environment where everyone feels invested and heard is something, as you know, we care deeply about. I don’t think I have worked anywhere where the pace is as fast, and the expectations/standards are so high. Recruitment isn’t for the faint-hearted and we shoot for the stars! But we know that to do great work, people need balance too. That’s why we’re always looking at how we can better support work-life balance, whether that’s through smarter systems, flexible working, or just making sure we check in regularly with each other. Please keep communication open and let your manager know if it ever starts to feel like too much. Thanks again for your feedback and for being such a valued part of the team!

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We’re glad you found the benefits package competitive but we’re obviously disappointed that you didn’t feel supported during your time with us. Negative feedback on our culture, which we’re incredibly proud of and something we’ve invested a huge amount of time in, is unusual, especially regarding lack of support. We meticulously track more than ten measures that hold us accountable for upholding our commitment to support employees and contribute to a great culture. These include wellness, happiness, relationship with manager & peers and personal growth of which we consistently score 8.4 out of 10 which is considered ‘great’ as a benchmark. We also monitor and share our Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) on a weekly basis with all employees, and this currently sits at 65 which is ‘amazing’ and significantly above the ‘worldclass’ benchmark. The feedback from our other Glassdoor reviews is also overwhelming positive, with a score of 4.9*/5* and 100% of previous reviewers would recommend us as a great place to work. Our custom employee engagement surveys sent out bi-weekly give us a greater understanding of how our team are doing and provides all employees the chance to let us know how they’re feeling, which we take very seriously and ensure all feedback is promptly actioned. Our personal development plan (now called My Journey Plan) is tracked and checked into with managers weekly, monthly & quarterly where discussions about challenges and difficulties (personal and professional) are encouraged. All the above measures are driven by employees and offer lots of opportunity for anonymity, which makes your feedback disappointing to us as it was never expressed during your employment. As you mentioned, our employee benefits packages are excellent and aimed at supporting all employees including hybrid working, a monthly ‘best self-bonus’ to be used for a well-being activity of your choice, an employee assistance program (EAP) and 30 days holiday. We’re committed to continuous improvement, and I would appreciate the opportunity to learn more about your experience and make any necessary adjustments. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at Ben@Josssearch.com or by calling 020 3096 7050. Ben Heathorn Executive Chairman

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that you feel supported and challenged in your journey. Creating a culture where authenticity, hard work, and personal growth thrive is integral to who we are, and it’s wonderful to know it’s resonating with you. We also understand that the pace of work can be intense at times, In fact, it is the main con raised on here. We’re always looking for ways to balance the drive for excellence with well-being. If there’s anything we can do to support you better, please don’t hesitate to share your thoughts with your manager, BSG or a Director as your feedback is invaluable in helping us grow as a team. Thank you for being such an integral part of the team, we’re excited to keep growing together! Jesse Hartshorne Talent Manager
