Vantaggi

There are people in the organisation who truly believe in the cause and who you feel safe to build relationships with as you will see they are genuine. They also work with some exciting companies which is a great opportunity to not only meet new people but also learn from their experiences which can be used to support other candidates as well.

Svantaggi

Where do I begin. As a larger company, LHH is a great company. Its London base however, needs a good clear out. This company went from an exciting place to work to having us dread stepping inside the building. It went from caring about people to only looking at where to cut costs. It went from being truthful with their image to attempting to keep up appearances and failing monumentally. As an organisation that helps other organisations support their people, they need to start practicing what they preach. It is very apparent the strain everyone there feels due to the workload and the way relationships have deteriorated over the years. This company is simply too ironic. They go to large companies and say that they can help them train their executive teams to better manage challenges with employees, manage change and be better equipped to do their jobs. However, internally, this company is failing at those exact same things.

None to speak of really

Svantaggi

Exploitative WFH culture that weaponizes visibility, and protects middle management even when their behavior is full on destructive which fuels a moral hazard issue whereby bad leaders can put on “face” and feel invincible. Unusually long “meetings” of managers fanning their superiority and belittling you, or focusing on short sighted optics. Members of my team routinely compared their one-on-one interactions in an effort to make sense of concerning behavior. Recruiting, many sales regions and pricing are clown cars of bad management. Don’t expect fair compensation or investment in any capacity regardless of how well you perform or what they have promised. Being a high performer does not change that - they simply learn to game you. These issues are so deeply entrenched due to moral hazard that they’re baked into the culture. Echoing others: “You will need therapy during and after ” but they will not pay you enough to afford it. They manage by micromanagement and fear. “Even if you do a great job if you are not a favorite you will have a difficult time here. It doesn’t matter if you’re doing your job if you are not accepted, however I think that’s their strategy,” said another and to add to that, credit for your work if arduous will go to someone else, and they will leave you with crumbs of recognition for work that required no business school degree to double down on hiding what you had to offer. A senior sales lead who generated boatloads in revenue before departing described her experience in meetings as being treated like, “Little girl, go sit in the corner.” That captures the dynamic precisely. I felt seen hearing that.
