Gives the appearance of a great company, but isn't

Pros

Energetic, talented people who enjoy working together. Good benefits.

Cons

Management is out of touch with the employees, and leadership lacks a vision for the company's future. It's a factory and you are there to make them money. Period. All that WD brand language about being an industry leader is just puffery. Those who have worked elsewhere will tell you the industry is passing them by.

Pros

Fair compensation to start with, competitive benefits with a 401k. Good smart people to work with that take pride in the work they accomplish.

Cons

Seems to lack a vision for the future. Appears to be in a mode of revolving door of adding people then letting them go. Growth strategy seems to lack a good plan for implementation. Do not expect generous pay increases for the time you work at WD.

Thank you for your feedback! This review was originally posted in 2014, 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! We also 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.

Pros

Decent work/life balance. Some great clients.

Cons

A micromanaged company, with an absentee CEO that only wants multimillion dollar accounts.
