Pros

If you're lucky, you get to work on a wide variety of projects because their clients are massive and always have work. For the most part, the people are pretty okay to work with.

Cons

Management never listens to their employees. When we have too much work, they don't care and pile more on. There was one week where I literally had 37 deadlines due within a three-day period. And that's not uncommon there. My department was notorious for coming in at 6:30am each morning, and if I arrived at the office at 7:00am, before ALL the other departments in the office, I would either get made fun of or get in trouble with management. And no, I didn't work a certain shift, I worked a regular "9-5" job. I also had an incident with a fellow co-worker over a one year period that I reported as harassment (following the advice of a lawyer), and was met by both my manager and HR with "get the heck over it and stop being so sensitive". That was the last straw for me.

Thank you for your feedback! We wish you the best in your future employment. For others reading this feedback, we’d like to highlight some of the things that we’re proud of at WD. In 2021, our overall turnover was 17% and our 6-year average turnover is 26%. If you compare that to the Bureau of Labor Statistic’s national averages, we’re doing much, MUCH better than the rest of the country – even in our own industry and region – where the annual separation/turnovers are in the 40-60% ranges for that same 6 years. (https://www.bls.gov/news.release/jolts.t16.htm#jolts_table16.f.10) We’re really proud that our clients are keeping us busy and our associates are choosing to stay! In the WD Associate Satisfaction Survey from April 2021, here is how our Associates rated their satisfaction with working at WD… - 8.3 out of 10: Overall Satisfaction Score - 8.9 out of 10: “I would like to be working at WD Partners a year from now” - 9.1 out of 10: “Inappropriate or derogatory comments and behaviors are not tolerated on my team.” - 9.3 out of 10: “My manager treats everyone fairly with respect, regardless of their differences or background.” - 8.2 out of 10: I’m able to manage my work in a way that allows me to maintain a healthy balance between work and home.” We examine all reviews from Glassdoor to identify any trends or areas of concern, but we also encourage all Associates to reach out to their manager, Executive Leadership Team Member, and/or Talent Care at any time. We do our best to offer potential solutions and share what is being done to address those concerns, though we understand that available outcomes may not always resolve all frustrations.

Pros

Several Senior people to learn from in this ORG. Flex work Fridays is the main benefit of working here. Good PTO.

Cons

First, Bad insurance. Second the CEO takes 5-10 Mill a year all while paying his employees as little as possible and blabbing on about irrelevant things at his quarterly meetings. You will work lots of overtime and the managers will feel little to no remorse for asking this of you. There is a reason they typically hire people from out of town. This company is full of type "A" personalities that will use and abuse you and not care what happens to you. They are psychopath's. If you value your time what so ever, do not work here. Oh yeah and instead of bonuses you can watch "10,000" donated to charity in the companies name.

Poor upper management

Pros

Other that management at the very top, there are some very good people working at this firm

Cons

The ONLY thing driving upper management is money and climbing the ladder. They do not care at all about their employees
