Pros

I can honestly say, hand on heart, that there are no real pros to working in this business

Cons

You need to be a self-starter here, as nothing is handed to you. I didn’t mind that, but what makes it worse is that you’re often competing with your own directors for business—they tend to keep deals for themselves rather than support you. There’s no training or progression offered. Despite being in business for over seven years, the company has never grown beyond 15 people, largely due to high turnover. Please do thorough research before considering a role here. Also, be aware that their marketing team posts fake reviews online. None of the employees seem happy here, and it’s a frequent topic of conversation in the office about what a disappointing place this is to work.

Pros

From my experience, management always handled things from the perspective of encouragement. If you are proactive and engaged you are trusted and just given a platform and the tools to work with. An existing network of clients, which are shared, but always encouraged to create new business for yourself and the opportunity to take ownership of that, which long term is far more lucrative. There was a good balance of work and fun. A relaxed atmosphere, and always approachable people. A close knit company.

Cons

Some of the other reviews here seem bitter to me. Recruitment isn't right for everyone, it's hard work and you have to have the discipline to get up and create business for yourself, jobs aren't just handed around like in the larger firms, but if you are someone that actually wants to learn, this is probably a great thing. I've been out of the company for around a year now to move into a different industry, I'm only leaving a review as I don't think some of the other representations here are fair, I had fun, received a great foundation in sales and loved the people I worked with.

Pros

Some good repeat clients ATS decent enough Some good people

Cons

Should be so much better Staff turnover must be one of worst in the industry (over 50% annually and has been for years) this tells a clear story (look at LinkedIn) Alcohol culture Heavy KPI culture and micro management Commission on paper ok but often goal posts are changed Somewhat paranoid upper management People culture stuck in the past Owners take jobs from staff to fill themselves Very little diversity
