Thank you for your 4-star review. DWS does indeed have a strong training framework where we not only pay for our staff to gain additional qualifications and certifications, we also pay bonuses on completion of these. We are very open to moving staff between roles, please speak to the HR team bout your career ambitions so we can support and assist you with this.

Thank you for your 4-start review. DWS does indeed have a great rang of major blue-chip clients. The projects we work on can range from short assignments through to major multi-year programs of work, depending on the level of assistance needed by the individual clients; with 6+ months being the typical engagement length.

Pros

Excellent Social Club - Monthly drinks are awesome and the social club in all states is always finding great events Paid Certifications - DWS Paid for my certification which I studied for while on the bench. They even pay a certification bonus once you achieve the qualification I spent a few weeks on the bench, however this has not been a problem and DWS provided me ample time to study during this time Referral bonus is great if you find somebody who might like to work here Interesting client work Performance Review Cycle works well - however is not frequent enough Great Christmas Parties Good support network with BD's and other consultants keeping in touch

Cons

Pay is only adjusted once a year - except in 2020 nobody got a payrise due to COVID so now it will be 2 years since anybody got a payrise Sometimes BD's will try to squeeze you into an assignment that isn't a good fit, however this only happened once Sometimes hard needing to spend an entire 8 hours per day on client site not including lunch to make up the full 40 hours, but some clients are flexible Previous CEO never allowed working from home (or required special circumstances)

Thank you for your comprehensive 4-star review. COVID threw up many challenges for DWS and our clients, though thankfully due to the support and assistance from all our staff we have come out the other side very well - and have also helped many of our clients adapt to their new working environments as well.
