I would not recommend working here.
Pros
Overall they have some nice people working at Propel, the socials are fun which is good.
Cons
However, the working environment can feel cold and unwelcoming, with the partnerships function seemingly prioritising certain consultants over others. Cliques and favouritism are evident, and if you are not liked by those in positions of power, the workplace can feel isolating. Speaking your mind or offering honest feedback is often discouraged, as questioning poor management decisions may result in being dismissed or labelled as “not a culture fit.” There is also a significant lack of expertise in recruitment and the tech industry in which they claim to specialise, particularly in engineering and product. The senior leadership team has little to no direct experience in recruitment, which means there is minimal guidance available. Unrealistic expectations are often placed on consultants, with little regard for the time and effort required to build relationships and credibility when filling challenging roles. Employee turnover is alarmingly high. People frequently leave or are let go without adequate warning or performance plans, creating a culture of fear and uncertainty. These departures are rarely communicated to the wider team, leaving employees in the dark. One day, a colleague may simply stop coming in, and the reason remains unclear unless you directly inquire. Please take the reviews seriously before joining. The high employee turnover and short tenures speak volumes. I wish I had pressed more on these issues before joining and strongly advise others to avoid making the same mistake.
