Pros

- i've met a lot of great people at first, sadly they all quickly left because of the poor management. - work/life balance is good

Cons

- no possibility of growth ( they will hire people to manage instead of promoting people and training them) - don't reward loyalty or hard work - no trainings - bad management : dangerous persons are left for months or years at management roles (before finally being fired) which is enough time to do a lot of damage ( and CEO / HR close the eyes on the bullying and discrimination) - constant change of strategy - no transparency : lies and and schemes rule/fake values - double standards : some people are praised for no reasons when other are ignored although valuable ( certainly senior management/ CEO favoritism )

Pros

Only the flexibility, Remote working if you are based in the uk

Cons

This is a toxic, male-dominated company led by a narcissistic CEO. Feedback from employees is not taken into account, and performance doesn’t seem to matter unless you align yourself with management. Women in particular appear to be undervalued and not given equal opportunities for advancement. I would not recommend this company, as the experience can be extremely demoralizing and may even make you want to leave the recruitment industry altogether
