Vantaggi
When I first came on board in 2012 it was great, the director was wonderful, the team was wonderful. If you did your job and performed you were not micro managed and you were given incentives for your hard work.
Svantaggi
- The turn over is remarkable and more so embarrassing, in 2 short years I was the 4th most tenured person in the office out of an office that was over 20. - Following my unexpected departure of being let go after I had landed and successfully managed to get 12 offers for candidates I was not paid out for my expense report and human resources and mangers have ducked and dodged me while I had proof with receipts that were sent in to collect the monies due - still no feedback. - Leadership is extremely unsupportive and has no buffer for difficult conversations that need to be had with clients and forces those on account managers which is unprofessional. - Lack of knowledge within the environment - the new leadership that was brought in had no sales background. - for account managers on large accounts, there is a huge lack of recruiting support and also from personal experience, I managed an account single handed while my 3 main competitors had at least 4 other account managers with them to support. All in all, the reputation from 2011/2012 until now has made a severe descend from where it used to be, contractors are being parsed out to different houses at key accounts so the company does not have to "deal" with them from a consultant care aspect and more often than not you spend time defending your job rather than being able to perform - extremely disappointing from a firm I once highly respected.
