Report
Horrific office atmosphere! Arrogant, and two-faced owners, and their employees aren't any better in fact - rude, unprofessional recruiters at work here. Some of them are "only" bullies, others are seriously abusive. my advice: look for work or a collaboration somewhere else. Plenty of other recruitment companies out there in London where you'll definitely have a pleasant experience, unlike here.
