Pros

A permanent role is just the pros of this company, other mentioned points in job ads are just for marketing!

Cons

Lack of professional behaviour in managers, their flat org chart makes a lot of problems for consultants.

Pros

Good people. The recruitment process and aptitude test they vet candidates with ended up making for good colleagues.

Cons

When I worked there it was a body shop. Not much chance of promotion unless you left and came back in a higher role. The company was trying to expand at the time with an ambitious new CEO (not Danny Wallis). It failed and a lot of people's jobs were made redundant.

Thank you very much for your review. DWS has changed (we feel, very much for the better) in recent years, and have built on the past to develop into the company we are today - one which supports and develops consultant staff though our internal learning and development opportunities, taking them as far as someone wishes to go in their career

Pros

In most cases, your job is safe for as long as you want it. There’s a lot of courses available, but be sure to do your research first, as a lot of them become outdated quicker than the company can update their course list. The company has a large client base, so there’s plenty of choice for industries to work it. It’ll certainly look great on the C.V.

Cons

Poor culture, especially in the head office. It’s overly political and bureaucratic. Asking for advice, or even simply questions is often met with extreme resistance.
