Pros
- Excellent training - Big company but we had a small office (circa 10 people) in Vancouver. This meant that we had the global brand and the backing of a larger group but could almost operate autonomously as a small agency without being a small agency. - The commission structure is excellent, the money is there for you if you make an effort. - Promotion opportunities... to a certain extent. - Office location - prime downtown location which made meeting candidates very easy. - Superb place to start out as an IT recruiter
Cons
- Lose too many good recruiters due to rigid bureaucratic management structure. - Way too many "all colleague" calls which take up an hour or more at a time. I felt these calls were often a huge waste of time and it was very difficult to get back in to the swing of things afterwards. I felt that the message from senior management could have been relaid to our own in branch MD or sent out as an email.
