Pros

The location on Collins Street is convenient. Its a lovely office in an iconic building and handy for candidates.

Cons

Culture and management. It is a very tense, stressful and unfriendly office culture. Rude and abrupt management style, which is a shame because some of the consultants are lovely (and great at what they do). Strict monitoring of emails, "clock on, clock off" approach to breaks (you have to email when you take you breaks). Very old fashioned approach to Recruitment in general.

Pros

Great location in the heart of the city. Some great friends made through this company. Fresh fruit delivered every week.

Cons

Very old school mentality and often the feeling of being 'monitored'. A strict culture which doesn't encourage sharing of ideas or information. An environment full of anxiety and stress which breeds undervalued and unappreciated staff. Some great Recruiters (past and present) within the business who need a supportive management style which Rowben unfortunately doesn't provide.

Pros

At the time it was some of the consultants. These have now left

Cons

Management. Management. Management. Once the jewel in Melbourne's recruitment crown, poor leadership has lead this agency to be the joke of the industry. When you treat your loyal staff so badly it's bound to happen
