Pros

- Staff nights out - paid for by the company - Good social events - Discretionary Bonus

Cons

- Company full of egos, if you're not a top dog you're basically worthless - The kind of company to sweep HR related problems under the carpet - Very corporate and not in a good way

Autonomy, ability to make more money through working harder

Teamwork environment was somewhat a boys club, team building was mainly exclusive boys club and drinks on weekend.

Thank you for your feedback. If you would like to share more information so that I can understand what you are referring to with "boys club" I would be most grateful. Our CEO is leading change within Knight Frank and the industry towards better balance in a profession that is traditionally predominantly male. My email address is sally.chacatte@knightfrank.com Kind regard Sally Chacatte, Group Head of HR

Not Great

Pros

Looks great on my CV

Cons

When I got offered the job at KF I thought I had made it ... top in the class of estate agency. How wrong can one person be. The perception is that they are a great company and know what they are doing. In reality the middle management team run around in circles, back stabbing each other. I was one of the lucky ones, my face fitted but if your face didn't fit your life was made very difficult. Glad to be out of the chaos

I'm so sorry to hear about your experiences at Knight Frank. Please do contact me should you wish to give more feedback on your experience as we are always keen to hear your views and how we can improve as an employer. For information there is absolutely no way that anyone at Knight Frank can see the IP address in employee engagement questionnaires as they are facilitated by an external oganisation.
