• Training very unstructured, even when in training I was expected to know all of the answers.. I’m sure the whole point of training is to teach me those?
• Was constantly expected to teach myself everything and learn from my mistakes, when I did make mistakes I'd then get hounded my manager, not really fair when I've not been taught what do?
• Management was brutal, in my time months working there I was consistently above or hitting my targets but was made to feel like it still wasn’t good enough due to the team not performing as well as they should
• Turnover was ridiculously high
• Poor team morale, at times you could feel the negative atmosphere in the team when the manager was present
• Salary was low, I do appreciate the fact that this may have been due to lacking experience but during my time I billed almost double my salary, yet was only given a small pay rise (grateful for the pay rise, but almost demeaning when it is reflected against the billings I brought in)
• Manager tried to rule the team with fear, talking down to me and my colleagues in front of other teams
• Miss-sold the job, during my interview I was told that being a recruitment isn't a 'sales job', couple of months later my manager said it was a sales job.
• At times I felt other colleagues were clearly favored to others, with the favored ones allowed to stroll in late at times with no issue, however when the lesser favored colleagues were not at least 5/10 minutes EARLY this was an issue?
• Had no relationship with my manager, unless it was to discuss figures my manager wasn't really interested
• Being that I was so inexperienced and so was many members of my team I imagined that I could lean on my manager more when looking for advice, but whenever I asked anything I immediately regretted it
• Very stressful, even on days off I was thinking about work
• Was made to feel like I was worthless at times
• 1-1 monthly meetings were shocking
• Probation review/meeting was brutal even though I was overall ahead of target
