Pros

Hays provide an extensive, impressive range of training days/weeks to develop your career within recruitment, with skills that can be used throughout your life. With a brilliant commision structure that gives you the potential of high earnings.

Cons

Work-life balance balance can be difficult to adjust to if your not used to office life. Working long hours you have to be willing to work hard every hour of the day. Targets and results can be difficult to meet.

Pros

Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

Cons

Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
