      This company is a joke - Anonymous employee Hays Employee Review

      Pros

      Global footprint and reach. Name is only often associated with recruiters and recruitment where ever you go 9/10 will know the brand name.

      Cons

      Not specialist or recruitment experts in any particular field. Second to Michael Page/Robert Walters. Huge disconnect between employees globally. Very disorganized and terrible HR. Salary is not competitive compared to other agencies. Employees and the firm is a joke.
