Pros

- Transparent career progression, not limited by age, sex or length of service - The most inclusive culture I've ever worked in. Truly Global, with opportunity to work with colleagues across regions to deliver the best service to clients and candidates - Really good incentives, including paid sabbaticals and extra 3 day weekends - Relaxed culture, flexible work hours and casual dress - Working with some incredible recruiters with great opportunity to learn from them - Entrepreneurial mindset, if you identify an opportunity the leaders will support you to go after it

Cons

- There is no patience for people who do not have a strong work ethic and who aren't trying. I'm frustrated by some of the other reviews here because the comments are untrue and unfair. The business has a long term view and if employees are doing the right activity they will be patient with them. It's the people with a chip on their shoulders, who expect everything to be done for them and aren't prepared to roll their sleeves up who don't succeed here. - I'd say expectations are high, but the rewards on offer are exceptional so it's worth it.

Pros

Work hard play hard mentality. You bill, you make money, simply put. You work hard, you are awarded, simply put. Supportive environment. The business is patient to allow people time to get up and running. If the business sees that you are putting the effort in, they will help you and support you to get to your goals.

Cons

The business, like every other company in the world has had to make changes and look at how they approach the market and overall, the internal landscape. Perhaps those decisions weren't easy for the business, but everything that was done was with everyone's best interest in mind.

Hi Tim, thanks for your review, Interesting - but not entirely factual. Firstly, whilst it hasn't been our greatest year, as with the vast majority of companies in our industry, There have been an awful lot of headwinds over the past 12 months that go a long way to explaining that. Secondly, we have lots of great people in this business who have understood that, knuckled down and produced incredible results. You weren't one of them, having billed less than your day rate over the previous 18 months (which I'm sure you haven't told your new employer). Interestingly, our best two months of the year have been since you left which I'm sure is a coincidence, but it feels quite symbolic. Finally, thank you for your "strategic" advice, I'll be sure to take it all on board. I wish you well Tim.
