Glitz and glamour but not a lot of substance

Pros

Great marketing team, arguably one of the best in the recruitment industry. Lots of international offices to talk about. Above average salaries. Some really fun people work here.

Cons

Management decisions (from board level) are impulsive and reckless often with no long term plan, the effect of this can be seen in the short tenure of employees and burnt client relationships (only a handful of employees have worked at the company for longer than 1-2 years). They are particularly good at dangling a carrot of untold riches and possibilities. You'll be promised the world but beware many many people have fallen for that one before! I would advise anyone considering working for Proco to reach out to some ex-employees, I'm sure they will be willing to share experiences and entertaining stories.

Not for long-term growth in career.

Pros

Camaraderie, drinks after work when the owners are in town, some flexibility if you've proven yourself, some cash/voucher incentives for milestones and small wins, and above average base salaries.

Cons

Many employees don't stay here long enough for any valuable client relationship to form. System isn't really used by consultant to track information and owners flip their decisions so much, not to mention they often don't honour contracts. They could decide to hire 1 month & fire several the next month so its unclear what the company vision really is.

Pros

Friendly and supportive colleagues in the office.

Cons

Many consultants are not billing as much as compared to other firms, but they gossip and talk a lot as if they were doing really well. Mediocre environment to join and grow if you are a high-performer or top biller. Commission structure is not really good compared to many other boutique firms.
