- company does not like to spend money and pays low salaries - a lot less than many other recruitment agencies in Barcelona
- they hire people without experience (it is cheaper) and expect them to perform well with no or very little help.
- leadership does not give any clear instructions and does not set real or concrete expectations.
- everything is just endless talk about positivity - no strategy and it is not acknowledged, if there are any difficulties with certain profiles or clients, so there will never be a solution
- owners say they want people to feel committed to the company, but in the end the leadership is not transparent at all - employees guess a lot and feel insecure
- internal competion is high and leads to conflict among team members
- no real rules regarding advertising, candidate ownership etc.: everything is vague and can be changed.
- even 1-1 meetings have nothing to do with the job, just a motivational monologue from the owners
- the company value "always adapting" is stretched to the limit: it takes forever for leadership to make a decision and even when it is made they can still change their minds. This means you waste a lot of your time, but still have to reach your KPIs.
- The company offered 30 holidays to its employees in the beginning, then changed it to 25 (6 months after it was first communicated that there would be 30 holidays) - they were surprised that motivation fell in the office
- confidencial information is sent out to colleagues by accident, e.g. Team leader's salary and commission structures
- there is not feedback culture: you cannot give feedback to the company and the company will not give feedback to you, but this does not mean that they are happy with your work.
