      Pros

      Location in Times Sq, the view, the building, some recruiters were professional (but then they left).

      Cons

      Unprofessional managing director, most of the recruiters who are still here are the fakest people I've ever met, toxic work environment. I paid $200+ for the worst insurance ever.

      Pros

      I honestly can't think of any pro's at my time with RW. Maybe the fact that the offices are beautiful and in a lovely location. That is all. There is a lot of room to grow but I couldn't last that long.

      Cons

      I felt as soon as I started I got treated like a temp, not a permanent member of staff. My colleagues seemed to judge me from day one, I also didn't recieve proper training because they were short staffed at the time. People are rude, unhelpful, and considering I came from a completely different background and tried my best, it was very difficult to fit in. This company is incredibly judgemental and snooty in my opinion and I wouldn't dream of working in a company like this again.

      Pros

      The Team members on my team it was a nice team excluding the management

      Cons

      Poor management, infinite amount of work is just thrown, forced to work long hours and weekends unpaid, as if 8-6pm was not long enough. Constant changes which makes which has a bad effect, if any other teams can't manage the work it gets thrown at another team who would get the work doesn't matter if the team have to work until 12am all management want is the work done and don't care about the employees Always recruiting because alot of people hate the place and choose to leave Management makes it like hell on earth and there is no motivation, just a robot The money isn't worth it Can't develop at all because the management want to recruit an external Company benefits are not great either Unprofessional Raise any concerns or issues with management it's like speaking to a wall or a robot Driven out of the place There are no deadlines Forced to make a manual whilst busy doing the daily job tasks Can't take holidays, can't talk to anyone with management around. Not a professional company Wouldn't work for RS again Bad experience Worst place to work
