push for more

Pros

Fantastic system to track client and candidate records, great name in the market, good team work spirit. Everyone has their specialty by function.

Cons

Too many KPI's to follow and track which means working longer hours. Salaries are rarely reviewed and not commission-based, meaning that bonuses are at management's discretion.

Advice to Senior Management

Make it a less stressful environment by slacking a bit on the KPI's - we're all human.
