Pros

Very good commission Great environment - friendly, supportive, educational. You can learn a lot working here and you pick up lots of useful information. Great colleagues, fun in the office and out with regular after work drinks (sometimes going all night long in which case no worries if you're late to the office next day!) Fun if you love meeting new people, and rewarding as you are helping them find new opportunities

Cons

Not for you if you don't enjoy working for a small firm. But if you didn't, you wouldn't be applying anyway! Long hours to start with - as with many jobs - but this pays off very shortly after as you have built the foundations upon which you build your success, and it's amazing to experience this

Pros

I joined DP from an environment with very little support or training. Over the last 18 months the whole team has played a huge role in my growth both personally and professionally. The culture is fair, collaborative and transparent. If any conflict does come up, it is very rare and always handled quickly and professionally. Management genuinely wants everyone to succeed and makes sure no one gets left behind. There is a lot of autonomy to work on what you are interested in, but also plenty of support if you want guidance. We collaborate closely across all three offices, which means you get to see the roles and opportunities globally. Client relationships are fantastic and often lead to exclusive roles. Even as a junior, I had the chance to attend client meetings and manage relationships directly which was such valuable experience. The team is amazing. Everyone celebrates wins big or small and there is a real sense of wanting the best for each other. Recruitment can sometimes bring out the worst in people but DP brings out the best :) The incentives are excellent and keep everyone motivated. Hours are great for the industry and being able to work out at lunch is a big plus.

Cons

Lots of cookie orders and Deliveroo
