Vantaggi
The spoiler for you: This is not a global executive search firm. I repeat myself; this is not a global executive search firm as Egon or Hedrick. This is an India based executive search firm which has taken the franchise operation rights from Amrop and hence known as Amrop in India. • This firm is controlled by a Senior partner and her husband and decision and policies are based on moods of the partners on that day. • If you really keen on developing yourself in the search industry, this is one of the best firms to work with – very good on the job training, great exposure into the complete search process and exposed to all the industries. • A researcher or consultant with Amrop would be doing all the things in the search process as someone at the principal or consultant level in Egon would do. • Bad part is, you would be doing the same thing the whole life in Amrop. No career growth path for you in Amrop India beyond consultant unless you are extremely “close to” the Managing partner. • Specific partners are unprofessional in their behavior. • No industry practice or group, so you would be like jack of all trades but expert in nothing.
Svantaggi
• No standards in internal policies, changes with the moods of the partners. • No long term growth prospects • You have to be in a particular gang with a specific partner to grow
