Pros

- Great place to earn money. The POTENTIAL for making good money fast is there for those who want it. - The banter in the office can be quite good, until it is stomped out by management. - You are encouraged to go out and meet people as much as possible - Career progression is very much in your own hands, up to a certain point - If you are liked by senior management, you are well looked after and can be accelerated in the business

Cons

- Very poor work/life balance - Arriving any later than 7.45am and leaving any earlier than 7pm results in a full blown inquest - Independent thought is discouraged. - Fresh ideas and suggestions on alternative ways of approaching things are described as "being resistant" and are dismissed - Sales floor run through fear, rather than through trust - Spoken to like children by management - If you are not favoured by senior management, then life can be hell. Seen impact on colleagues who have all since left the business - High turnover of staff - Highest billers become management irrespective of their ability to manage and no training put in place to make them managers

Pros

Aston Carter provided excellent opportunities for professional growth, career progression, and leadership development. I had the opportunity to work with some of the largest healthcare and insurance clients in the country, build strong client relationships, and lead high-performing teams. The company offers strong training, a collaborative culture, and a performance-driven environment where hard work is recognized and rewarded. I was fortunate to work alongside talented colleagues and supportive leaders who helped me grow both personally and professionally.

Cons

Like many staffing and recruiting organizations, the environment can be fast-paced and demanding, with a strong focus on metrics and performance goals. Work-life balance can be challenging during peak periods, and processes can sometimes vary between offices or leadership teams. However, these challenges also create opportunities for growth and development.
