Pros

I have worked for the company for 8 years and still love what I do. I have gone from trainee sales consultant, to sales consultant, to senior sales consultant, to Sales Team Manager to Manager and I am currently working towards my next promotion to Director. The company focus on promoting from within and providing a career for life to it's staff. They have a rigorous training regime which continues throughout our career. There is so much opportunity to grow and develop and there is brilliant earning potential. I joined this company in my early twenties and really feel like I have grown up here. I have made some wonderful friendships and even met my now husband on my training induction workshop 8 years ago. Our company culture is one which really values the customer and focuses on professionalism and five star customer service. This really sets us apart from other estate agents. I would not work for any other firm in this industry.

Cons

The hours are quite demanding however this is made up for in the earning potential. There aren't many jobs where you have so much control over your own salary and success and it's a busy job so you need to put the time in.

Pros

Wonderful! Outstanding! Incredible! Just some of the many words that can be used to describe Value consulting. They carefully helped me through the process to get our H1B visa. Even through the long and sometimes unbearable waiting times, they kept me believing that I would succeed in the end. Well, thanks to their professional handling of my application I did succeed and now in the US.Familiar environment, nice and, available colleagues. Good salary, very interesting projects, great clients, big exposure to senior management of clients, possibility to work abroad.

Cons

Challenging projects but not bad at all.

Pros

Christmas party is alright. It's free drinks and food. But it's on a Thursday night every year cause they don't want you to drink to much and don't like it when people book the next day off.

Cons

Overworked, treated like a child and spreading Propaganda about the property being fantastic all the time. They discard their staff like candy wrappers. Dexter's management are a real piece of work. The environment they create in the workplace is toxic and encourages alpha male bullying. They want total control over you and believe you should work in the Dexters way. They even tell you how to write your draw your own diary and and do diary check ups once in a while to make sure you comply. How sad that they mark you on how organized your diary is... and if you drawn your diary correctly with two lines in the middle and if you bullet point your tasks correctly. This is no joke. They do this. They say you start at 8:30am and you work till 7pm. But in reality if you turn up at 8:20am they give you a stern telling off. And say that you need to be in before then. They really expect you to start at 7:50am - 8:00am. And you work 6 days a week. People are going to say they pay you well. But if you work out the hours you put in vs the money you get. it levels out to the same as any other job. But Expect to exhausted all the time and treated terribly. Omg and the meetings. They love everyone super pumped and love lip service. You have to tell them what they wanna hear other it's career suicide. If you talk or are seen to be realist and to say the market down. Your seen as negative and that's it your career progression is over.
