Pros

- The most supportive environment you will likely experience - Absolutely no egos whatsoever - Everyone is incredibly focused and driven to make the most of the opportunity to work here, yet they are all humble and down to Earth - Plenty of free food and benefits designed to keep you happy and heathy every day - Actively encouraged to take a walk at 10am, a full 1 hour lunch away from your desk and another walk at 3pm

Cons

You could make your first deal in your first month but equally it might take you 6 months or even a year to make your first deal. This could be quite mentally exhausting and so it is not for everyone. However, there are no KPIs or ridiculous sales targets; you will be supported and guided to your first placement and all placements thereafter.

Pros

I joined DP from an environment with very little support or training. Over the last 18 months the whole team has played a huge role in my growth both personally and professionally. The culture is fair, collaborative and transparent. If any conflict does come up, it is very rare and always handled quickly and professionally. Management genuinely wants everyone to succeed and makes sure no one gets left behind. There is a lot of autonomy to work on what you are interested in, but also plenty of support if you want guidance. We collaborate closely across all three offices, which means you get to see the roles and opportunities globally. Client relationships are fantastic and often lead to exclusive roles. Even as a junior, I had the chance to attend client meetings and manage relationships directly which was such valuable experience. The team is amazing. Everyone celebrates wins big or small and there is a real sense of wanting the best for each other. Recruitment can sometimes bring out the worst in people but DP brings out the best :) The incentives are excellent and keep everyone motivated. Hours are great for the industry and being able to work out at lunch is a big plus.

Cons

Lots of cookie orders and Deliveroo
