Pros

fast paced, energetic and fun working environment

They hire and fire employees at the snap of a finger- you won't be there long! You must pay back half of the salary you received if you leave within 1 year.

A career in sales is not for everyone and this is made clear from the very start of the interview process with Morgan Randall as are the hours. The lure of unlimited earning potential and seeing others earn a lot of money pulls everyone in however, not everyone is able to pull off the same success as they do not have the sales ability required. The hours are long because we have to be available when our clients and customers are otherwise we cannot provide a service to them, especially in London as most people work long hours and cannot view properties until after work. We are committed to employing the highest calibre of sales people and ensuring they have a long and progressive career. Our contracts are very fair, transparent and are fully compliant with employment regulations. The suggestion of paying back half your salary is clearly false and would mean that we could be taken straight to an employment tribunal as the law does not allow this. If any starter is paid a guarantee amount over their agreed salary to help them before they start to earn commission then this would need to be returned if the employee chooses to leave within a year as this is a condition of the payment which is made clear from the start. The guarantee is optional and is not compulsory so it is only done by prior agreement. Unfortunately not all recruits have what it takes as this is not a career for everyone and it is a real shame when this happens. Neither party wants the outcome to be one of disappointment or failure however, there are going to be instances like this in a growing company like ours. Morgan Randall has already doubled in size over the last 12 months going from 2 offices to 4 and it would be impossible to have these offices running without the amazing team of people we employ across the organisation. As we continue to grow over the next few years and get closer to our target of 25 offices in London we will need more people who are able to do a great job looking after our clients and customers as well as run and be part of the teams in each office. It is not logical to think that we would want to fire employees "at the snap of a finger" as we would not be able to run all of the offices and departments without them. Our employees are the backbone of the organisation and they are what makes us so great. The cost to hire and train a new recruit is phenomenal and we would not want to loose anybody who is onboard as this would not make any business sense and would cost the organisation deeply and set back the growth plans. We spend a huge amount of time and energy in ensuring that we train people from scratch on how to do the job as we do not employ people with experience. We help every recruit gain their ARLA/NAEA qualifications which is not an industry requirement nor are we compelled to do it. We are a forward thinking company that wants to build and train the best workforce. We certainly wish this former employee all the best and hope that they find a career that is suitable for them within a non-sales industry role. If you are thinking of joining and have any questions we are more than happy for you to come into any office and ask the amazing staff that work there on how they feel as they will be in the best position to put you at ease rather reading about it here.
