Pros

FutureStep is a company that will give you the chance to interact with variious types of clients, some of them very important companies. You`ll also, if lucky, get to work with very experienced people in the recruiting field.

Cons

Huge focus on increasing revenue and growth but very little to none on people matters. A lot of experienced agency recruiters that try to apply all their agency practices in the RPO world, and that sometimes doesn`t work.

Pros

The client diversity across industries and regions is top notch. Great brand recognition. The marketing investments in Korn Ferry Tour and LA28 paid off. Smart people. Remote work is a plus as 75% people work remotely. No push for facetime in offices. Work from anywhere! Everyone knows of Korn Ferry!

Cons

A culture of long hours and interrupted vacations. Clear demarcation between haves(fee earners) and have nots (execution). High expectations with outdated systems, manual processes, inefficient. Low pay as there are no merits due to market/company performance. Hard to get food at the holiday party so stop at Five Guys prior.
