Pros

Really nice people in my team.

Cons

Apart from a 2 week training course, I was offered no day to day support by my manager. This is because the managers have to make money on their own desk so new starters can get left behind.

Thanks for your feedback, and sorry to hear that you felt the training and support wasn't good enough. Over the last few months we have invested significantly into our L&D team, and we have just launched our new 6 month training programme for new starters, which offers new employees fantastic coaching and support as they learn how to be a great recruiter!

Pros

Great company culture and people: All employees go through a personality and cognitive exam before hiring; thus, you're sure to be in a environment of like-minded people. Many internal marketing campaigns are launched as incentives for performance.

Cons

Ultimately, it is a high-pressure sales environment with a heavy KPI-driven management. You need to be able to think on your feet and be flexible. Not much room for career advancement.
