Sphere Group Reviews

- Non-existent culture. Recruitment is renowned for being hard-working yet very sociable, which is something I felt everyone in the office was looking for. This was an unattainable goal in this office, with staff frequently being told to "shush" and many a 10 - 11 hour day was spent in silence. - In the 6 months I worked there, there was only ever a maximum of 5 grad consultants. All of whom have now left and are yet to be replaced. This speaks volumes. - Hours are long. Completely expected in recruitment, but made difficult due to the office environment, and worsened yet by the judgement and negative comments received when leaving after a 10 hour shift. - Micro-management like nothing I have ever experienced. No trust in carrying out the most simple of tasks, constantly questioned after every phone call, email, etc. Not only is this demotivating, but also massively time consuming. - Poor commission structure (although the company will argue it's the best in the business), no perks, no incentives. - During my time there the office made perhaps 1 (at a push 2) fees a month; again making it a very demotivated environment. - Outdated company - website hadn't been updated in 10 years, no social media presence, no attempt made to update practices with the changing times. - Recruitment isn't known for its high morals, but as a firm that supposedly prides itself on their ethical practices, they should really put some more thought into how they treat both candidates and employees. Some particularly unethical occurrences in my time there.
