I personally didn’t have any issues. I had a good time working for them

Excellent CEO and Sales Director - a perfect balance between results driven and a personable approach to management for what is an aggressive and demanding industry. Cognitive's brand is received positively by 90% of the clients and candidates you engage with across the Microsoft tech space. They have made every effort to become a more diverse and inclusive work place and have actively encouraged flexible and home working for people with families. Reasonably competitive salary and comms structure set to reward those who are prepared to work really hard for the cause. It is a nice place to work and competitive in the right way. Over the course of my long tenure things have changed many times but they have got the balance perfectly set from top to bottom right now with their people leadership team. As a business they have done so well to look after people during the fraught and anxious periods of the covid pandemic.

Probably need to hire more experienced people still rather than always relying on an old guard of 6 or 7 consultants to perform exceptionally well. This isn't a criticism but the pressure on the better performers is immense. More opportunity and career guidance for junior consultants or those less experienced as the business has grown very quickly and there's good people there who need some TLC. Need more investment in some internal tools rather than relying on legacy relationships and linked in all the time to find good candidates.
