Pros
You will start to appreciate how much you enjoy and value you life and time outside of work it will make you appreciate an actual good job when you leave the social scene is the best part but even then there is a huge click with management and their favourite staff There are actually some brilliant individuals there and one or two managers who have been there for years who are quality however too often their brilliance is thwarted to adhere to the archaic way the company is run... They are great up until they are scared the MD will shoot them down or be in a 'mood'.. then they are most likely to go against you to 'save their own'. Take your hat off to Conor as his pockets must be absolutely bulging, same as the management team but at what cost to the principles of the company and staff
Cons
the company is so unethical and morally floored its a running joke in the office.. The sexism and racism from senior management down to trainees is unfathomable and if anybody who actually gives out the 'top companies to work for' awards looked into the moral of staff working then serious questions would be raised. They run the company from the same model as a decade ago, albeit they make a few positive changes but then hold it against you and withdraw privileges almost to restore equilibrium. They epitomise the modern culture of social media where they post all these wonderful pictures, videos, events and charity work to make it look like the most beautiful place to work however the staff are not priority and no one really cares how you get on as long as you are hitting the most backward and unproductive targets. They bring in managers who have 'experience' but clearly have conned their way through careers and would provide less intelligence, class and grace then a ogre from Harry Potter all in all the best parts of the company are the employees within it who get mistreated and miss managed.. the only reason they are still their is through being brainwashed into believing it is the best recruitment company to work for... even the scooters, swanky new office and No, 10 Downing Street meeting room cant cover the mould seeping through the company You are tricked into all these great benefits and commission when really you work as hard as you do there you would achieve much better anywhere else... to achieve an okay/average salary in recruitment terms you have to be prepared to work 50+ hours a week absolute minimum.... I can assure you as can most people who have left there is a lot easier ways to make money The company is the Arsenal of Recruitment companies, once great and enjoyable however run the same way for too long and true quality is sacrificed for new stadium (office) and figures... some of the staff they have brought in are truly laughable...
