- Very low pay especially if you start as a junior
- Very limited extra benefits, main focus is on commission structure
- The company hires a lot of interns to save money of salaries but this results in having a lot of people without expertise
- No flexibility in terms of home office not even for senior colleagues
- The management is very money oriented, as an employee you can feel exploited
- Unprofessional management practices, many times they fire people on the spot without any notice. The owner claims this is the Spanish practice to avoid damage to the company but then they preach about being very international
- The owner’s main objective is to please the clients without thinking how this might affect the colleagues. Many times the company signs with clients that have unrealistic expectations so you spend hours and days souring for candidates just so they all get rejected. You only receive commissions if the a candidate gets hired. This results in getting demotivated easily
- Funky office but in an old fashioned building with no heating and it gets extremely cold during winter, you need to work with gloves and scarf
- “Seeing expenses everywhere instead of investment” mentality
- Poor equipment, old computers
- Rotating system: every couple of months you need to switch places but you can’t take your PC so you need to delete everything and reinstall to new PC
- Morning and afternoon shifts as colleagues need to open and close the office
- No senior colleagues in the team so not many people to learn from as the majority is very junior
- No real progression plan as the company is small and doesn’t grow over 20 colleagues
All in all, it’s a good place to start your career in recruitment but no point in staying more than 6 months. If you’re good you can easily get a role in a final company earning the double in salary.
