I worked at Morgan McKinley full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
The people and culture are simply stand-out. This culture is built on ambition, determination, and hard-work, whilst having great fun at the same time. Leaders and colleagues are friendly and... supportive, and all of this creates a great environment for people to learn, thrive and develop fulfilling careers. If you're looking for a career in recruitment, there is simply no better place.
Cons
With great ambition, comes a sizable change agenda. The change is exciting and welcomed, but can often taken longer to execute than planned.
Advice to Management
Keep doing what you're doing!
I have been working at Oliver James full-time
Pros
The leadership, the technology, the career opportunities, the global mobility, the office spaces, the people, the culture, the ownership, the benefits, the parties! OJ has always been a market... leading recruitment firm, but in the last few years it's challenging any business as a market leading employer (in both sales and operations).
Cons
Communication in any large business always needs attention from leadership. As OJ's growth has shot up, it needs to keep an eye on how and when group communication is managed.
