Pros

Top clients, very talented and smart people, and diversified services makes it an interesting place to learn and experience a lot- if you apply yourself.

Cons

With diversified services comes diversified skills and perspectives from your associate pool. This makes unifying processes, systems, and culture a difficult task.

Pros

People there are pleasant to work with. Good working environment. Interesting clients and projects. Good benefits. Company has a pretty good reputation.

Cons

Poor leadership; they are only interested in themselves and are obviously self-serving and phony. They intentionally keep too few workers, insufficient for the workload, in order to boost profits. Because of this, people work too many hours, the quality of their work suffers and turnover is high.

Thank you for your feedback! This review was posted in 2013, but if you're still a current Associate, please contact Jessica in Talent Care to learn more about what the Executive Leadership Team and Recruiting teams are doing to identify resources to support current and future workloads across all of our disciplines. For others reading this feedback in 2022, 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! We also currently offer a Recognition Program that can be utilized by managers and our Executive Leadership team to reward high-performing Associates individually in a variety of ways throughout the year. This program can be used in addition to our other compensation adjustments. 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.
