I worked at Adzuna full-time for more than 5 years
Pros
- consistent and strong culture, people tend to be very supportive and the relationships often extend outside of the office; - very committed social team putting a lot of effort into providing... diverse entertainment options for both in-office and remote employees; - great regular workshops often involving outside guests; - great progress in terms of taking inclusion issues into account; - fast-paced if you're willing to commit, but Adzuna is a little bit what you make of it - if you don't pull in your weight, you might find your responsibilities boring;
Cons
- the career progression options should be clearer, there's been some progress over the years, but there's still work to do; - the salaries are fair, but there should be more transparency regarding... expected remuneration during the performance reviews;
Advice to Management
Please make sure to maintain the culture and consider the cons above.
I worked at networx recruitment full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
I thoroughly enjoyed my years with networx. 1) People are great - lots of talented and knowledgeable people 2) strong portfolio of good clients and brands 3) Solid operational model 4) flexible... and adaptable to the changing needs of employees (personal and professional) 5) fantastic benefits and pay - really reward their people 6) great fun culture - work hard, play hard 7) you are surrounded by people who want the same things - the recruitment process is robust to choose the right people. As I say, I really enjoyed my time with networx and only left for personal reasons and changes in circumstances.
Cons
Not a con as such, just a reality of the situation. To get great results, you must put the work in. It's a sales target environment and therefore it's relentless. You work hard, you'll succeed and be... an employee for life. If you don't, it's simple, you won't succeed and you'll fail quickly.
Advice to Management
None as the business model works well. Great work, keep it up. Thank you :)
