Pros
Great family culture, I would never work for a different agency.
Cons
Commission plan heavily weighted for temp consultants. Lack of direction from management and changes not communicated properly.
Advice to Management
to work as hard as you expect your team to work, and to communicate better

Pros
- Autonomy to structure your own day - Strong brand especially within the financial services space - Various social and charity events - Employees are easy to get along with
Cons
- Too much focus on stats rather than quality - Synergies between teams can be improved in order to sell the company more efficiently - Work life balance can be improved further - Some teams stretched due to not enough consultants - Can be seen to do more on active extracurricular activities I.e sports and fitness
Advice to Management
Generally doing a good job and seem approachable, however, can be more positive and provide better training to consultants who are not doing so well. Especially with their success in recruitment to date.

Pros
Morgan McKinley is such a great place to work as they are all about the people! Being a working mum the flexibility they offer me is incredible and with the recent introduction of laptops, we are now able to work in a more agile environment. It's a very rewarding place to work, not only financially but also for me personally and professionally.
Cons
None I can think of.
