Pros

My immediate team(excluding the area manager) were great. We all worked really well together and it was a great culture between us.

Cons

Discrimination was allowed by upper management. They knew certain clients were rejecting suitable candidates based on their ethnicity/health backgrounds and we were basically told we just had to deal with those clients as they brought in money or they were good friends of upper management. Blatant sexism and sexual harassment were allowed. Office staff were overworked, underpaid and not appreciated at all. Would be one of the worst places I have ever worked at in my recruitment career and I have worked at some of the top companies.

Pros

Career Development Flexibility to achieve something that could resemble a work/life balance

Cons

Culture is very difficult to work in which can feel toxic. It is not unusual to be screamed at (including cussing) by line managers and certainly general manager. The harder you work and the more you do, the more at risk you are of ridicule (which includes blaming you for errors made by whoever the current favourite is). Management appear to make decisions based on feelings rather than education. No HR department and no support for anything HR related. Very loose environment, a lot of inappropriate conversations had by all. You will be rewarded more for aligning with the 'right crew' than your professional achievements. Ultimately a very disappointing experience.
