Michael Page reviews

The CRM/ATS is pretty much the worst. Turnover is atrocious. Terrible hours (8am - 7pm, but really more like 7:30am - 7:30pm if you know what's good for you). Don't expect to have lunch away from your desk unless you're taking a client out. They really let you know what you're worth (how much you cost the business). Yes, it's a sales culture - but the micromanaging has to stop. If you're firing so many people in their first year anyway, might as well focus on retaining anyone with more experience first.

Michael Page as an Employer: COMMUNICATION is the biggest issue. There are 3 tiers to the hierarchy in every office: consultants, managers, upper management. Managers communicate one thing to their team, which is entirely different from what they tell upper management. When they get yelled at for not having as many interviews as the week before, they claim to shelter their teams from this, yet they continue to kick the cat themselves. This stems from the lack of managerial development in all consultants as promotions are based on $$ billed and not business acumen. If you're a good biller, congrats--you're now managing a team of 3+ people. There's a lack leadership and integrity across all managers in the Houston office. Every manager there has lied: so many stories of stealing revenue from one of their own consultants or lying about why a team member left the company or faking their KPIs. The faking of KPIs is disgusting and should not be tolerated in any business. My manager did this and still works there. If that floats your boat, then cool. If you have integrity, then look for another job. Bonuses are quarterly and not based off each placement, so get comfortable with the base pay as not many people bonus in that offie as you are told in your interview process.
