Thank you for your feedback! This review was originally posted in 2015, but we wish you the best in your current and future employment. 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! 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.

Smoke & Mirrors

Pros

Good people within the office on the whole. Friendly group.

Cons

Where there smoke there is usually fire. The whole thing is a smoke screen. The upper management from Dublin is a two-faced deceptive group. The management at the TO office is inexperienced and a joke. Typical US firm style. They work you to the max, and discard you when they feel you cannot help them. They dislike anyone who has good knowledge and knows more than the top staffers. HR is a total joke and the manager has no idea what they are doing. The other managers are non-existent in their ability to manage and are spies for the the head office and lie to your face. Watch your back from some of them as they will use you and bounce you. The training at the start looks good, but it is all a smoke screen. There is no in-depth training from the local office. There is no long term here, it is a stepping point and that's all. They cannot get another client as they have no understanding on servicing the immediate priorities. Pay level for the amount of work required is insufficient.

Pros

The company is at the forefront of innovation, with projects that challenge and inspire. WD partners offer numerous learning opportunities, including workshops and training programs, which have significantly contributed to my professional development. The work-life balance is excellent, with flexible hours and remote work options that make it easy to manage personal and professional commitments. WD Partners is also committed to diversity and inclusion, creating a welcoming environment for everyone. The management team is incredibly supportive and always recognizes hard work and achievements. Overall, WD Partners is a fantastic place to work, grow, and thrive.

Cons

The compensation package is decent but could be more competitive to attract top talent. Additionally, some projects could benefit from better resource allocation to ensure they are completed efficiently.
