Pros

You can bill under £20k a year and not get fired as the place is so terrible they simply can't recruit any talent. Sometimes you see a helicopter out of the window.

Cons

-Management knows nothing about recruitment. Quite a disturbing sexual harassment case involving senior members of staff happened in December 2013 and they are still there. -Payroll offers no support and gets upset at the noisy nature of the sales floor. -Sales floor is like walking among tombstones. -0 talent coming in. you'd think a recruitment company would understand what makes a company great and how to, you know, actually recruit. They don't. -Growing a company through acquisitions leads to constant power struggles. -No regular staff events and if there are, they don't pay for drinks or anything. They'll leave you to get a cab home from the middle of nowhere or you could go back with the director... -Have overheard Senior Management making racist jokes in the toilet. -Everything you ask support to do is a chore and "not their job". -Salaries are very low and the commission scheme is broken. You stop earning commission on a contractor after they have done 12 weeks leaving Experis with the lions share of all of your juicy contracts. -You have to work on low return on investment jobs to keep the old boys clubs biscuits in stock. You will work on roles between 15-18k on 6% basis and are expected to hit your target. I guess this is why no one cares. -Freezing cold offices and the cheapest free coffee and tea going. -Open plan like a prison. All of the work force is on one large floor whilst the 'managers' watch from their cosy offices decorated with their private school certificates. -Meeting rooms unavailable last minute as the non billing staff loves to waffle. In a nutshell, don't join. Read this and move on or join and remember, I told you so.

Pros

the best agency I've worked with in the 4 years that i have been working for various agencies as a contractor. Did not low ball on salary, paid completion bonus, paid for get together lunches for the team on the project, some benefits after enough time on the payroll.

Cons

Did not happen to me, but a few people had problems with their 1st paycheck and problems with the back office operations.
