Morgan McKinley Reviews

Pros

Great management across the entire business and a true focus on development which is thorough and incredibly helpful! Such a great environment where you feel comfortable being yourself, are accepted by the team immediately and are encouraged to be a leader in your own right from day one.

Cons

Nothing I can fault till date.

Advice to Management

Keep bringing in great people! There is such a high bar for the successful candidates who become employees which sets this agency apart from many others.

Pros

Excellent work environment, work life balance and flexibility to work from home, leave early or start later as needed, focus is on quality of your work and output and not how long you spend in the office. Leadership genuinely cares about your ideas and input and will always encourage you to grow The team is encouraging, no back stabbing and they are all always happy with your success.

Cons

I know that opportunities to work internationally and move to other disciplines is available, but would want to have a clear view of what roles are vacant onshore and offshore and an idea on how to get a conversation started if there is interest to move.

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work, listening to what everyone has to say and making an effort to implement it is really great and makes everyone feel included.

Pros

- Great leadership and management - I report directly into one of the inspirational founding MDs which is amazing for my personal development - Flexible working is encouraged and role modelled. It's a genuine reality here, I'm working from home as I write this! - Team of bright, impressive and lovely people who want to work collaboratively and celebrate each others' success - Global reach and infrastructure, but boutique...

Cons

None - it's always busy so you have to enjoy working at pace, but that's recruitment in a nutshell and I know I'd be bored otherwise!

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing and make sure we're showing those outside of the business what great things we're doing, so that we can keep attracting like-minded people to join us :)

Pros

Great work environment, excellent commission and a wonderful development.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

I'm based in Sydney, working in the Accounting and Finance team for Financial services. As a career changer, I have found that Morgan Mckinley has provided me with a clear pathway to making my transition into recruitment as smooth as possible. They also advocate for; Work flexibility Onsite training and upskilling A professional yet fun work environment Great leadership and mentorship Overall my experience has...

Cons

Not loads of inter-team mingling but that seems to be changing with a few new initiatives.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing.

Pros

My first thought of Morgan McKinley before joining the team was not the same as it is now. I originally thought it was extremely corporate with a focus on hitting targets, just like a lot of recruitment companies. But that's not how I would describe Morgan McKinely at all! I can go to the gym in the afternoon and get home at a suitable hour. The office is a 3 minute walk to Darling harbor. It is modern with live...

Cons

We need one more microwave.

Pros

Morgan McKinley is a total contrast to anywhere I've worked previously and genuinely changed my perception of the recruitment industry. There are no intense KPI's or clock watching and you do have a voice. The Directors listen to you and actively seek your opinion so it's great to have an input. The MMK brand is great leverage and is well-known which has made it a lot easier to work with new clients. There is a great...

Cons

The systems can run slowly which is frustrating at times but it's great to see this being addressed with new IT being brought in. Working from home and flexibility will be easier when everyone is working from laptops.

Advice to Management

Keep pushing to do things differently as it works.

Pros

Morgan McKinley has one of the most adult and autonomous cultures I have ever experienced. There are no useless KPIs for the sake of hitting numbers, no micro management, no one asking what you're doing or where you're going or why. Your activity and billings speak for themselves and the support you receive is based on your ability to seek help, take ownership of your development and career path, and build your desk your...

Cons

Currently the only real con is the office space now getting too old and too small - soon to be resolved with a move in the next quarter to beautiful new offices near Barangaroo! Flexible working practices are definitely a WIP but with the move to the new offices and possibility of new laptops, alongside the incentives scheme for late start/early finishes and 4hr fridays, this is definitely being addressed.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing! The MDs are indescribable and the support and help within the business for you if you ask for it is essentially endless.
