Pros

If you stay long enough within the company there is room to move up within the business. The energy in the business with the new refurbishment of the London is shared by all members of staff throughout the London office.

Cons

In order to do well within LHH Penna, you have to abide by LHH Penna company ethics and goals. During my time at this company I was micro managed to the extreme, having to have weekly one to one meetings was not helping me achieve my job requirement as I did not have a knowledge of Penna before the acquisition. My department was under staffed, having to deal with candidate and employee access for a base of 60 - 100 consultants and candidates could not be dealt with by 2 members of staff, discussing developing improvements to the company's internal websites and systems with senior management was brushed aside. The company is completely London centric, many of the regional offices are left with old resources and on old systems, as other recent reviewers have said it appears LHH Penna are spending their profit on social events and dinners which should be spent on improving resources and systems in the regional offices.

Pros

Interesting work with some great clients and colleagues

Cons

Change in ownership has led to a move away from recognising the value brought to the business by the people within it to regarding them as a cost and balance sheet liability

Pros

Opportunities are abundant to strengthen former employees' chances in an ever-changing job or even retirement market. Company is always advancing and innovating. Some impressive and inspirational top tier leaders.

Cons

Less communication and true leadership at the regional levels can be challenging. The pro & con is local autonomy but the exclusive and strict attention seems to be limited to sometimes uncontrollable KPIs.
