I have been working at Mercuri Urval
Pros – In this company, everybody has a human resource consultant background, usually combined to business experience from other companies/ earlier careers as well. At Mercuri Urval, everybody will be provided basic training and support through the whole career. There is always a chance learn new, if you are willing to do so. In this company also great personalities are accepted - as long as you behave respectfully towards your customers and colleagues, you are not being critisized but appraised on your personality. Despite of being a small company in the US, there is a great international and national network of colleagues and customers, that you can work with.
The senior management really listens to you and makes effort to find you opportunities where you can grow both as a person and a professional if you are willing to open yourself and put the efforts and time in learning. The focus of the management and colleagues is on people - both when working with the customers but also in the internal projects. I have been treated really well at Mercuri Urval.
Cons – Mercuri Urval is a perfect place for a specialist, who is interested in working with interesting companies, projects, colleagues and customers, but due to it's size it does not provide many career development opportunities.

I have been working at Mercuri Urval
Pros – People - committed and dedicated
Personal challenge
Variety, but can be months of sausage machine assessments
Cons – Leadership is poor, yoy business decline of 20% during last 4 years, 67% drop in Consultants
Focus on cost reduction and profit which has been achieved through significant salary reductions, reworked bonus systems and drop in flex benefits from 15% to 5% which has led to very de motivated employees
No career progression unless you are a formidable salesperson as this will always be valued above technical capability
Advice to Senior Management – Change UK Leadership
Decide whether the business is a people consultancy or a Recruitment & Selection business
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
