Pros

The initial training is not bad.

Cons

Honestly this company have no idea what they are doing in the market. They paint a picture of a forward thinking, family style and innovative environment but honestly it’s nothing of the sort. They are so out of their depth and frankly there are far better recruitment companies out there. Expect favouritism, micromanagement and constantly being lured in to a false sense of security. Not what it was cracked up to be at interview. Tend to just hire failed recruiters!

We are delighted to be tracking at 4.8 out of 5 on our reviews so far. We are passionate about creating an environment that supports and enhances the careers of our people, whilst maintaining a fun and dynamic environment. This month we launch our new family-friendly policies, which we believe are not only industry-leading, but tracking against the best policies available anywhere. Our flexible working environment, work from home policy and ‘dress for your day’ initiatives are already having a hugely beneficial impact on the wellbeing of our people. Broadgate Search is a grown-up, entrepreneurial, data-led recruitment business that puts people before profit. We have just been placed at #27 of Best Companies Top 100 companies to work for in the whole of the UK, and #5 in recruitment for the UK. We think this award demonstrates that we are who we say we are.

Pros

-They look after their employees - a member of senior management lent me his tickets for the Arsenal-Chelsea game a little while ago when I was only 5 months into the business! -We've just moved into our new offices! Lots of room, very modern and incredibly polished. -Close ties to our sister company, who work on the same floor as us. They work in the digital space and working collaboratively with a company that has such a different company culture is always refreshing. - No elitism/favouritism - having come from other companies where this was the case, it's nice to come to an environment where even the MD and directors will sit with you, discuss any issues that you are having and take the time to check on you on a personal level -Senior management listen to you and your ideas - for example I explained that new starters would benefit from getting mentored from people newer to the company than those who are more senior here, as they themselves have gone through that recently enough to have insight into the problems they may face. This has since been implemented into our onboarding process for new employees! -Very welcoming to new employees - the whole business and sister business -Very mature working environment - this is a target-driven job, but you are given the autonomy you need and are treated like an adult

Cons

Sometimes we run out of coffee in the kitchen?
