      Pros

      Good training that sets recruiters up for life. Family feel about the company. The working day flies by. Lots of job satisfaction.

      Cons

      Poor wages. Poor or non-existent commmission. Very cliquey at the top in Senior Management. Dominated by chain smoking , middle-aged women with hearts of stone. Unrealistic targets. A bit "rah -rah". My advice to new Recruiters is start your career with firms like Brook Street and move on to a " proper" agency after 12 months or so. Soak up the training/experience & then get out quick !

      Thank you for your honest review, I'm very pleased to hear about your job satisfaction and the training that you received. We believe in a culture of learnability, where employees can acquire transferable skills, so I'm very happy to hear you experienced this. I'm less thrilled to read your comments about management. I don't know how long ago you were working with us but I hope that this perception has since changed. Please rest assured that your feedback will be taken on board.

      Pros

      Can offer long-term work but you need to play ball and not get too fussy. Salary quite good.

      Cons

      If you walk away (even with good reason) they will not offer any other work. Tried re-registering a couple of years later and they took £25 to cover DBS but had no intention of offering work. I was offered a refund but that never arrived and was probably just to soft-soap me.
