Pros

Certain people are gems (some great American managers and above), good offsite events, gained good working experience in early career

Cons

Pay is well below market standards. majority of managers & up are incompetent in leading-especially, the French ones do not communicate instructions well, and give critical instead of constructive feedback. Most engagements are not intellectually engaging (mostly PMO) but have heavy workload. only a few employees actually enjoy the culture (very cliquey) and leadership shows blatant favoritism. If you are not one of the ‘chosen’ ones it can lead to an anxiety inducing work experience. Employees pressured to take on multiple internal initiatives at once to show dedication. There is a reason so many junior employees leave before a full year at Wavestone.

Hello and thank you for your review. We regularly benchmark against our peers to align our compensation packages with market standards, the results are shared transparently with our consultants. As part of a global company with a foundation in Paris, there is a French culture present within our organization’s ways of working. In addition, we have grown rapidly through acquisition of US companies, so our leadership team hails from a variety of backgrounds. As part of our Positive Way set of values, we strive to continuously evaluate our managerial practices through the lens of equity and a goal of transparency and collaboration in decision-making for all our colleagues. At Wavestone, the opportunity to be involved in developing people and the company outside of being on client engagements internal initiatives are an important part of our culture, which is widely regarded as one of the best parts of working with us. This is not a requirement for anyone nor is it a pre-requisite for success. We hope this is helpful feedback.
