      Probably one of the worst companies I've ever worked for. Glad I'm not working here anymore.

      Pros

      Very difficult to find pros. Some friendly coworkers. Drinks on Fridays. Pool table.

      Cons

      The way this company deals with consultants is awful. The following is not a joke nor exaggeration. SALARY WILL NOT INCREASE after a year working despite being told before joining that it increases year on year from £23.5k to £28.5k to £40k+, despite making hundreds of pounds of profit on each consultant on site PER DAY. £12,000 fee if you want to leave within 2 years which I dont think is even remotely equal to the shoddy 'training' provided. To actually use the word training is actually an insult as literally ALL my coworkers and I learnt very little from our time there. So many other lies told to sell you the job so the recruiter can make a profit. If there's one thing QA are world class at, it's lying shamelessly to your face, over the phone and in emails. Though simple emails are ignored constantly anyway. Repeatedly told they want to keep consultants on after 2 years but how is that gonna be possible if QA barely respects us.

      Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We understand that you have not had the best experience with us, but appreciate the feedback you have provided us with. We are legally obliged to declare a clear salary, and the payback implications of your training fee should you leave the company before the period agreed. We would hope that to support this, your manager and recruiter also explained this in detail to you. We have passed on your feedback to the appropriate leadership teams to investigate how this miscommunication may have occurred, and please be assured that we will take the best course of action to rectify this for any future intakes. We wish you the best of luck for the future.

      Thank you for your comments. Our Sales departments are not unlike many other companies who have sole objectives to drive new business. That said, it is not for everyone - and we are sorry that you feel you didn't get the support you needed to thrive in this area. We wish you success in your next move, and thank you for your time working for QA.

      A great place to start your career. A poor place to finish it.

      Pros

      There are some great people at QA that really make the atmosphere something special. A great place to hone your skills as a sales person with good coaching.

      Cons

      Progression into management is limited. Sales is ultimately relatively basic unless you are working on the biggest and best accounts. Pay is below average after you gain skills and experience.

      Thank you for your review. Development is key to our people agenda, and although not as clearly structured as in a larger corporate environment, we do believe that those who take a proactive approach to their development will progress quickly within the business. We offer 3 days fully paid, to study a course with QA, alongside an additional 2 to take up volunteering work which we hope develops our employees softer skills. In addition to this, internally, we extend our opportunities in Apprenticeship and Post Graduate qualifications, fully covered by the business to all employees who have been with us for 1 year or more.
