      It's a tough job but with good reward if you are committed and goal orientated

      Pros

      A well established system with good training and a good team based approach but also giving you the sense that you are running your own business. Good co-workers, everybody is really nice and get along well Nice office environment, clean and spacious Strong existing connections of clients and candidates in the region and the biggest foreign agency there. Seem to be well placed for further growth Fast paced and exciting Overall had a good experience working there and would definitely recommend it

      Cons

      The pressure of KPIs can sometimes really suck but it's a sales job so to be expected I guess Felt like some micro management when KPIs were low They use too many cliches like "time kills all deals", "you don't get if you don't ask" etc

      Pros

      Relaxed atmosphere, freedom to do your duties as you see fit. Management seems very easy to deal with, and everybody on the team is eager to help. Also free beverages every other week (usually on a Friday and when the have their monthly "wrap up"). They also engage in departmental "bonding" activities.

      Cons

      Hours are very long; 9 - 6:30 is a standard shift and they expect you to wear full corporate attire. Management are obsessed with looking at stats from the team, and are not very engaging with the team "in real time". I didn't feel like my talents were rewarded effectively and I kept being pulled up "for a quiet word" because I didn't fit in with the management style even though nobody was complaining about my behaviour.

      Thank you for your review, we appreciate your opinion and the time you've taken to add a considered review. It’s great to hear your positive comments regarding the office atmosphere, your team, and departmental activities such as the monthly wraps/social events. It is of course disappointing to hear not everything went as well for you. We do expect people to work hard, I’d agree with you there, but with that we try to be flexible too. We've just changed our dress code, no ties and a more casual approach. It can be a hard balance to strike as our values are all about professionalism and quality and that filters through to all aspects of the business, including key business support roles like IT. If you’d like to tell us more, please feel free to get in touch with me at contact@robertwalters.com Kind regards, Katy Group Talent Director

      Pros

      Great team environment that is refreshing in the recruitment industry. Genuine specialist professionals who care about their job and the candidates they are working with. Fantastic office culture with enough of a work life balance.

      Cons

      Like any sales/ recruitment role you have good and bad days. The best thing is to communicate with your manager and take advice where needed during the troughs.
