Reviews about "management"
Return to all Reviews- 5.023 Sept 2019Talent AssociateCurrent Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
- Vibrant and collaborative team - Very fair and approachable management - there to answer questions and help when you need them - Clear and fast progression route, you are rewarded for the hard work you put in (I was promoted in my first four months) - Plenty of opportunities to get involved with other things beyond your job role - Autonomy and independence with projects, with a great amount of support if needed - Driven by values that translate into everything we do
Cons
Don't have any cons so far
- 5.022 Mar 2022Talent PartnerCurrent Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
All levels of management are very approachable, I feel supported even as a fully remote worker. With staff being located all around the world now, lots is done to ensure we get to know each other and that the company culture is not lost. They are flexible and put their trust in you to do a good job, no micro management are flexible and put their trust in you to do a good job, no micro management are flexible and put their trust in you to do a good job, no micro management at all.
Cons
Nothing that comes to mind!

Pros
Good team, good incentives for success
Cons
Lots of change as management try to figure out where they want to take the place.

Pros
Dynamic colleagues who strive for the best.
Cons
- Management has no direction, don't consider any other opinions and change their minds when it suits them - Micromanagement - and everything needs to be done as per the CEOs will - no consideration of better ways of doing things - Talk about diversity a lot, but not diverse at all! - Will get rid of employees when they feel like it, no training or mentoring will be given to grow them first - No room for growth, due to management being extremely rigid.

Pros
- The on boarding and training process is really great, you’re provided with responsibility and unconditional support from day one. - Everyone in the office is super friendly and it’s a very collaborative work environment. - You’re provided with plenty of opportunity for progression and growth. - The management team is like no where else I’ve worked before. They consistently provide you with opportunities for self-development and actively encourage your success. It’s also not a hierarchical office where you never meet the Heads of the company- you work with them everyday! - Lots of fun out of work activities, such as early finish and drinks on a Friday, quarterly incentive days out, and a weekend away.
Cons
- Not a con of Instant Impact, but a career in recruitment requires lots of resilience and motivation to succeed.

Particularly for a recruitment company Everyone is involved in decision making - senior management like to listen to all employee's ideas.

Sometimes too data/KPI driven
1 - 3.018 Nov 2018Anonymous EmployeeFormer Employee, more than 1 year
Pros
- The team is unbeatable. Really great people who aren't 'typical recruiters'. - A generally supportive, collaborative environment. - Structure is flat and therefore communication within the team is good.
Cons
- Pay is low, often below London Living Wage. - Non-recruiter team members come second to the recruitment team and there's little understanding of how to manage these other departments. - Fundamental issues are 'swept under the rug' while management focus on short-term wins.
