Pros

The culture before the Scottish MD took charge

Cons

The Scottish MD managed to run a somewhat reputable organisation into the ground and inevitably closure (Actions speak louder than words, if you're looking for a public speaker hire him but if you're looking for an MD, AVOID him at all costs). He would interrogate you and direct a personal character attack if you handed in your notice. Through his lack of leadership most of the billing Senior & Principle consultants left due to changing the culture too quickly. If asked what happened to the Sthree Australian offices they should just put a picture of him up. Such a shame as it was a place whereby usually you would feel proud to be a part of.

Pros

Wfh Fridays and good benefits but that’s it

Cons

Be aware. Unless you’re living with your parents do not work here. Managers are snakes and will still deals from you. It’s impossible to get ahead here due to people stealing your deals or having people come off your book before you get to the 5k mark. The competition here is ridiculous. Very few other staffing agencies work like this. Please go somewhere else if you pay your own bills and are trying to make it independently like myself. They will lie to you and tell you you will get ahead within a year. False, maybe 5 years.
