      A talent management company that doesn't manage talent

      Pros

      Global business with a good client list. Lots of awards for RPO. Rigorous processes. Well known brand in its sector.

      Cons

      The people who get recognised are those that shout loudest rather than based on the quality of work delivered. Talent is poorly managed. Cliques exist everywhere. Work-life balance is non-existent. Packed full of distinctly average people. Worst company I've ever worked for.

      Pros

      There is a ping pong room, the office is welcoming. Colleagues are very nice, very friendly. Jeff the overall boss for Belfast and Bracknell is really nice. They need to clone him quite a few times and replace some others.

      Cons

      There are so many bad managers. These managers do not encourage staff, they just continue to highlight a weakness as a fault. They don't look at the "data" (the reason why) If a team has a high staff turnover the manager is never questioned. The staff aren't treated fairly, if your face fits you get more benefits like working from home. Some managers talk negatively about their staff in an open office. I actually liked the company when I joined, but the management (some, not all) really need a manager manual 101. Kitchen is also far too small.

      Hi There, I'm obviously very concerned that anyone working for our business feels this way, in particular as we've introduced a number of initiatives this year aimed at flexible working and invested in training for all colleagues including managers. I'd be keen to hear more and if you would like to discuss this with me directly with a guarantee of anonymity then please get in touch. If you would prefer to speak to a HR colleague, please get in touch with Nicola Sell at nicola.sell@alexmann.com. Thanks, Jeff

      Pros

      Great people to work with, fun environment

      Cons

      Right fit of employee to the account they will be moving to because at the end of the day, it's their performance that's at stake.
