Pros
Having been at the firm for a while now I have seen the team grow, in particular within the last 18 months. A key achievement has been retaining the tight knit culture as the firm continues to grow due to its' incredible success. This is implemented by the Director and everyone has a say in hiring, roles, clients etc.
Full transparency across the team and access to all roles.
Client list has continued to grow at manageable levels with some business being turned away to ensure we can fully deliver and clients we work with are the best within their field in terms of opportunity, tech/research focus and rewards.
Autonomy to manage your own time, take on responsibility and manage accounts quite quickly.
Benefits including team trips away, regular team lunches, fully stocked beer fridge, darts, private healthcare, gym membership, weekly amazon grocery shop, egg chairs, cycle to work schemes etc.
Cons
Start up feel so need to pitch in to help with whatever is required including admin but this has now greatly improved with the operations team putting in place more structured processes as we grow, especially when onboarding new joiners there is a comprehensive training scheme.
Need to be driven, as will be a steep learning curve for those new to recruitment like myself or even experienced hires as our culture is very different to other firms from the level of transparency to being collaborative and spending time together outside of work.
