      Great People and Great Culture

      Pros

      It's rare to find a consulting company that genuinely cares about its people and having a great culture. With a flat structure and approachable management team, DWS goes beyond your standard benefits with an active social club, rewards for years of service and cash bonuses for certifications and staff referrals.

      Cons

      A consulting company has different challenges to a product company that team members need to be aware of.

      Pros

      Interesting jobs. Apart from that not much else.

      Cons

      Chances of a pay rise close to zero. Will sell you out to anyone for a dollar. Management don't care where you work, for who, or what you work on, even if its a bad career move. They have no loyalty to their employees. The first hint of a downturn and they will sack people. Before Christmas 2018, 10 employees were sacked, mainly project managers, then after Christmas (2 months later) they were asking employees on the bench if they knew any project managers that wanted a job. DWS is more like a sham employment scheme than a proper company. If you aren't highly skilled and highly employable, do not work for this company.

      I'm glad you found your job interesting. DWS provides annual pay raises based on performance. While we understand that not getting a pay rise can be very disappointing, we encourage you to reach out to our HR team for guidance and feedback. Furthermore, we care about our employees and try our best to align projects to their career ambitions. However, working for a consultancy means that sometimes you have to work on clients and projects you may not like.

      Thank you for taking the time to review DWS. Our business has changed significantly since your review, and we are now under new ownership as a part of HCL Technologies - who are a top rated employer across Australia and NZ.
