Pros
-Completely transparent with the compensation structure, how much you'll make off of each placement, and when you get paid. -A team that really wants you to succeed and celebrates your wins! They really set you up for success and give you all the necessary tools you need
Cons
I honestly don't have any!
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
The best move I made after what felt like a tough decision to make leaving my old company after being there for 6 successful years. A very mature working environment, great support system, great team spirit and so many incentives each month/quarter that you really do get rewarded for the hard work you do!
Cons
None I can think of for now!

Pros
Pay, Hours, Time off, Working conditions
Cons
I have no cons at this time.
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Flexibility, rewards, maturity, people and leadership
Cons
I struggle to think of any... Only con would be if someone wants to work for a small boutique agency as we are not that. But, we are a well-sized, growing and ambitious business which offer huge opportunity.

Pros
Investigo has a fantastic culture and you can tell the effort that everyone puts into it. Collaborative, team-oriented, supportive environment (especially for a recruitment agency) with top performers in the industry. Compensation is market leading and there are multiple career paths, if you are purely focused on billing or managing (or something else). Makes more of an attempt at D&I than any firm I have seen.
Cons
As the company continues to grow, there are inevitably going to be some growing pains that come with it. Sometimes things can feel either too unstructured or too bureaucratic, but leadership is dedicated to consistent improvement and has shown this. This is a contingent recruitment firm, so there should be a level of expectation going for a bit of a high stress, sales oriented environment (that said it has never felt like a boiler room).
Continue readingThank you for taking the time to leave us your review and rating. It is always so great to feedback listing, fantastic culture, collaborative, supportive and team-orientated as pros as that is exactly what it is all about here at Investigo and it is great that this is your experience. As we grow we have every intention of keeping focused and looking at how we can improve and make Investigo an even better place to work.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback and even better to hear of all the pros you are enjoying whilst with Investigo. It is great to see 'supportive', 'passionate' and 'kind' mentioned. It's the people who make all the difference and we like to think ours are the best.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
An all-around amazing place! The best out there. The best commission structure I've seen at any other agency. An inclusive and supportive culture where anyone and everyone has a voice. Strong mental health and D&I initiatives. Motivating and inspiring leadership. A focus on not just professional development but personal development too. Women in Senior Leadership roles. Less turnover than most agencies. A very clear promotion path, and the support needed to get there. NOT KPI-driven; more of an emphasis on the end goal. Healthy competition - not petty or toxic like many other agencies. Just a fun place to work!
Cons
At the end of the day, the challenges of recruitment are present no matter where you work. Investigo makes it worth it though.

- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Remote and good work/life balance.
Cons
Lack of strategy from leadership. Pulled in different directions on a weekly basis. Favoritism shown to some, while others get double standards. Lack of diversity.

Firstly I can only imagine how testing it must have been to have spent all your time with us almost entirely under lockdown conditions. Whilst we have gained an increased sense of work:life balance from remote working it has certainly been a challenging year with some of the best loved parts of our culture, the camaraderie, the open door to our CEO and entire board and all of our internal and external events being moved online. It is understandable that your engagement would be impacted and it is shame that this has been your experience at Investigo. Like most organisations, the pandemic has forced us to change our strategy and although we are now confident we are back on track, it’s definitely been a turbulent time. Our people have remained the core focus though and we have continued to support all our people both professionally and personally. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, your feedback is important to us and all that received is presented to the Senior Management Team so we can address concerns and take positive action. Our door is always open and we'd encourage you to contact either our Head of People and Culture or our CEO directly to discuss your feedback further.

Senior Marketing Executive
As always thank you taking the time to leave us a review on your time at Investigo. Whilst we appreciate you weren’t with us for very long and quite possibly spent the majority of that time in lockdown we’d value knowing a little more about your experience with this. We'd ask you to please contact Sarah House-Barklie for a strictly private and confidential chat about your time with Investigo and reasons for leaving us. We look to grow and feedback is an essential part of that ongoing journey.
