Pros

- Stands head and shoulders above many players in the RPO industry - Has an excellent portfolio of blue chip clients - Good internal mobility policy, can move around amongst different clients whilst still effectively being able to stay with the same employer/career structure - Recognises, rewards and promotes people based on merit - As an organisation, has a huge emphasis on the flexible working piece; I've been approached by other RPO organisations in the past and they always comment that the flexibility Alexander Mann offers makes it hard to poach people away. - Has a good gender split at all levels in the organisation - As well as moving around within the UK, it is also very possible to relocate abroad as the company has a global presence - Senior leadership are open and receptive to views, regardless of where you sit and at what level - Policies exist that allow for career breaks / sabbaticals, dependent on length of service

Cons

- Can be quite difficult sometimes to see an internal career path that goes outside of recruitment delivery/management into other areas such as business intelligence, operations, etc, and how such a transition would work. Although people do it, it would be good to provide more information/case studies so people can have the most visibility.

Pros

Kind of hard to think of much considering my experience. I did have one good manager there, but when handing in my resignation I got yelled at for being ungrateful. Seriously? I thought I was doing a good job and that's why I was paid, so why would I be grateful for getting my paycheck?

Cons

No one seems to care about cases of harassment - since I left two other people left for that same reason, the management didn't care as the team leader guilty of that behaviour apparently "gets results". Well sure, threatening people etc. will usually motivate, right?
