Pros

-Remote work environment
-Interesting projects
-Great coworkers
Cons
-Senior partners show little to no appreciation to employees. Both are very personable with clients but couldn’t care less to make an effort with their own staff. During my time, there was a singular time a token of employee appreciation was given— and that was only because of complaints, then it never happened again.
-Low salary/long hours. Working into your evenings was a regular occurrence.
-Revolving door of staff. Read a previous review that stated this & the company disagreed this was the case.. If multiple people are saying the same thing, it is time to stop being defensive and simply DO BETTER. Treat employees fairly and with respect, and they will stay longer than a few months.
-Aside from high turnover, being short staffed was seen as normal, although more work was always taken on! During my time here, the workload never slowed down even with low staff numbers, which would burn staff out with the long hours necessary to complete the work. And even after that, all staff received in recognition was either a verbal, “Good job”, or worse, “that is what we are supposed to do”. Loud and wrong. That is not how you treat your workers that keep your business running.
-The constant stress experienced here is NOT an industry standard.
- “Merit” based promotions, left much to be desired. A slight bump in pay for more responsibility outside of your role due to short staffing. Not worth it.
- Can’t forget this one— employees were encouraged to ONLY give positive reviews here on Glassdoor to improve applicants view on WR, and if there were any negative reviews, we were encouraged not to post them but to simply communicate them to management and they would be taken seriously. Highly highly unethical to suggest such a thing especially when no positive changes ever resulted from prior complaints. Did not like that experience one bit.
