Vantaggi
- If you’re assigned a good desk, there’s strong earning potential. - A four-day workweek is offered as an incentive but will be revoked if billing targets aren’t met.
Svantaggi
Workplace Culture & Environment: - Predominantly a boys’ club, where women are only respected if they generate revenue for the company. Observed instances of women being spoken to poorly, while men received more professional treatment. - Lack of real-time support and training—if you’re not billing, you face negative consequences rather than proactive coaching from management. - Bullying behaviour is ignored; management offers lip service but fails to take real action. - Minimal support for those with little recruitment experience. Expect to self-teach most of your role. Training sessions consist of surface-level discussions rather than practical learning. - Leadership promotions are based on revenue generation rather than actual leadership ability. There’s a critical need for emotional intelligence and resilience training. Management & HR: - No HR support—potentially by design, as it allows management to continue unethical treatment of both candidates and colleagues unchecked. - Extremely low salary, close to minimum wage. - Toxic workplace culture starts at the top with the CEO, creating a high-stress environment that filters down to senior management, who appear visibly unhappy. - Unproductive activities like weekly quizzes are framed as “business development.” Upon leaving, I provided honest feedback but encountered zero accountability. Meaningful change is unlikely unless management reflects on their approach. Extremely high staff turnover—I strongly recommend seeking employment elsewhere.
