Pros

Some good comradery between more junior employees, good location if you live in the South East and don't want the London commute, large office with car park, interesting industry to recruit for.

Cons

Very limited progression which is based on favour with Seniors as opposed to ability to recruit, poor management team that don't consider the wider companies when making decision, overly confusing commission structure that regularly leaves consultants out of pocket, a fining system by the Directors for when you make (what they consider to be) mistakes costing you 20p a pop and often resulting in over £20 a month.

Pros

Good agency to get recruitment experience

Cons

PC are still working like an agency from the 90s and times are changing more than ever, if they don't apart they risk getting left in the dust. The company constantly are looking for KPIs to be hit but recruitment is more than this and this is what forces them a bad reputation. We tried to have many interventions but PC always went back to its same way of working and a very unpredictable management team can make things very stressful.

Pros

Ive been working here over 5 years and have never had any problems with anyone at the company. All the management have been very supportive and taken time with everyone to make sure they aren't struggling and are getting to grips with the job. The time is always there and will be spent on anyone who asks for it. Good uncapped commission structure and rewards for target hitters every quarter. Great location for anyone who doesn't want the city commute. There is a fridge for you to store your lunch in for later if you aren't hungry during the 'structured' lunch hour :)

Cons

Sometimes the music choice is a bit pants but it is a recruitment company and not a night club so i cant really complain.
