Mckenzie Holland Reviews

Pros

The people who I worked with for the period I was there were incredibly influential on my knowledge of business and start ups, I have never really had that kind of mentorship before in my life.

Cons

We worked pretty long hours compared to what I am used to but the information I got was worth it

Advice to Management

Keep up the good mentorship!

Pros

- Good mentorship and training & good people - Great positive environment - Social - Nice office

Cons

- No parking - Hard work

Pros

Before I worked at Mckenzie Holland I was not a very goal-orientated person nor incredibly self motivated individual but after some time at the company despite it not being the field I wanted to spend the rest of my life in, I became a lot more of a self starter and enthusiastic and setting and hitting goals due to the motivated people I was working alongside with day in day out.

Cons

I was working fairly long hours compared to what I was used to which for me was a bit too much as I never wanted to get to running my own deal.

Advice to Management

Treat everyone equal to their goals

Pros

Office looks great, full of energetic people, very close walk to central station

Cons

I walked out at start of field trip '2nd interview' $0 base, 100% commission pay, they will avoid that subject too! Door to door sales after using public transport.

Advice to Management

Be honnest, dont waste people's time. Dont falsely advertise on seek what you cant deliver.

Pros

Personal and professional growth is encouraged with regular clinics and one-on-one mentoring. Help is always available, you only have to ask. So many of the skills learnt in this role carry over into every day life. It is up to each person how far they want to go and how quickly. It's a great place to start to gain experience for whatever you do in the future, in this business or the next. I've been lucky enough to go...

Cons

Sometimes the travel arrangements are a bit messy so we end up wasting time. We aren't allowed to make too much noise because there are other offices nearby. In a young and fun environment this is fairly challenging.

Advice to Management

Time for a bigger office. I think we have almost outgrown this one. Paintball for the Christmas Party?

Pros

For this kind of work the earning potential is huge. The manager is open to ideas and rewards for being innovative, which in turn enhances personal development and the need to succeed. The staff seem really ambitious and fun which leads to a really social hard working environment. The company has an open door policy which enables new starters to get on and move up he ladder.

Cons

It is long hours, but if you work hard you are rewarded well and I have been able to travel which has been fun. I wish you didn't have to wear a suit though ! The office is in he City centre with no parking which I find costly.

Advice to Management

Let us have more chill down days and subsidise parking or get a car park

Pros

Great motivational speakers, encouraging and helpful. Great potential for earning good salary and quite a sociable company. Makes you want to be more ambitious to achieve more for self satisfaction and appreciation

Cons

Can be a bit repetitive, long hours and not always the best journeys to and from work. The lack of on site parking can be an issue and needs to be addressed. Need to put the hours in to achieve results, when you are tired you don't feel like it.

Advice to Management

Probably need to reword the job description as not clear what you are signing up for, more training on good sells techniques. More thought on wording of adverts

Pros

I enjoyed working at Mckenzie because it was a really social environment with a lot of support despite it being hard work. They foster entrepreneurial mind-sets which is exciting to see from a company.

Cons

Sometimes the atmosphere is a bit cheesy but this is to creative a positive environment.

Advice to Management

The business trips to other cities and locations are often 5+ days which is hard for me and my children.
