Pros

Good training in place More or less a fool proof system to be successful and make placements Due to the size of the business a lot of opportunity to move upwards in the business.

Cons

Mechanical, by-the-book approach to everything Very KPI driven, even with older and more experienced consultants who know what they're doing little room for proactivity or creativity

Thank you for getting in touch. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and we take all employee feedback very seriously. It’s great to hear your positive comments around our training - we aim to provide the best training in the industry and it’s something that we’re known for. There is a focus on KPIs as it’s important in a sales based business. However, while there are KPIs in place we do also work on a team project share basis. This means that everyone is encouraged to work together and that helps to take a lot of pressure of individual consultants - we feel that this makes us different to a lot of competitors. We believe that people should come before process and we’re sorry if that wasn’t your experience. We’re always keen to hear employee feedback so if you would like to get in touch, please feel free to email me: Ingrid, Group HR Director at contact@robertwalters.com.

Pros

The company does value work life balance however with the recent merger the team structure changed and the management team really needs to add structure to make it more cohesive however they only care about meeting numbers

Cons

Management does not care in performance of employees unless they are not meeting numbers
