Pros

LHH has a company that has gone through a lot of changes and transitions over the last few years. I’ve been here over 13 years and can truly say we have the right leaders and focus to bring us back the best of the best and greatness that we have known for so many years. I’m proud and excited to work here. In my role, I work cross functionally across practice areas and geographies, and I’ve had the opportunity to work with incredibly talented and mission-driven colleagues who are passionate about making a difference for clients and candidates alike. We foster a culture of transparency and continuous growth, you will see this in spades if you work hard and are dedicate to the craft. I’ve felt empowered to take initiative, lead with purpose, and contribute meaningfully over my tenure. The flexibility of working from hybrid/remote has also been a huge plus. As they say, if you love what you are doing it doesn’t really feel like work!!!

Cons

Not really a con but a reality, to produce at the top levels you work more than 40 hours a week. That works for me and my life but an expectation you need to understand.

Pros

The team was one of the strongest aspects of the organization, with many supportive and hardworking colleagues. PTO and time-off benefits were competitive, including occasional early-release days and additional time-off opportunities throughout the year.

Cons

The company culture has significantly declined in recent years, leading to lower employee morale and engagement. Micromanagement became increasingly common, while transparency and trust diminished. Although remote work was heavily promoted, there has been a shift toward a hybrid/in-office model. Office conditions often created challenges, including recurring maintenance issues and an open floor plan that made it difficult to focus and conduct private conversations or meetings. Compensation has not remained competitive with market expectations, making it increasingly difficult for employees to achieve strong earnings. Comparable staffing firms in the industry often offer higher compensation while providing similar benefits and time-off programs. As a result, retaining experienced recruiters and top performers has become increasingly challenging. Work-life balance also suffered due to the pressure of meeting KPIs and performance metrics, often requiring work outside of normal business hours to remain competitive and meet expectations. Employee engagement initiatives and team-building activities that once contributed to a positive environment have largely disappeared. There has also been noticeable turnover among tenured employees and top performers, raising concerns about retention and overall organizational direction.
