Pros

To be honest nothing, I regret being here so much I would rather be back to unemployed.

Cons

1. See all the reviews below, the culture is toxic. The management level is so toxic that they blame everyone for everything. MDs can’t even get new jobs in but instead they blame you for not charging clients more or not to work harder even though there is no new work. They would prefer you work longer on a simple task to monetise clients. They don’t care about how efficient you are, they want to stay overtime doing nothing, come in early to do nothing, because that’s what will put a good look for them. They dehumanise you for everything, unappreciative of your work and blame you for all what is going on at Kroll. 2. No clear path of progression or promotion. If you’re good at bootlicking then you will get fast tracked. It is required for SA to be qualified but if your the teacher’s pet then you can get promote. They will try stop you from acquiring skills, it is red flag for managers if they think you want to try the Advisory side more than the Insolvency side, they don’t encourage any kind of learning or training, even trying to get rid of LinkedIn Learning - the only resource we have. 3. Definitely favouritism towards certain people. 4. Talented people are bullied out of the firm. And if they know you’re planning to leave, they will make everything hard for you and will threaten you with stuff like “Oh you know it is a small industry, and we know everyone” 5. The pay is crap compare to other firms and to the overtime they expect you to do. They will call you during your annual leaves, weekends, after hours.

Pros

Interesting work Good employee benefits Flexible WFH policy

Cons

- Clear favoritism towards certain team members. - Toxic culture set by managing directors. Very much stuck in their old ways and practices don’t fit in today’s working environment. - Complete lack of diversity at the senior management level. - Poor pay and bonuses in comparison to working hours. - Zero appreciation from managing directors for long hours and efforts to meet unrealistic deadlines, often at the expense of personal time during evenings and weekends. Would be ok if this was appreciated but instead experienced being berated by managing directors with passive aggressive emails, and ignoring concerns about unrealistic client deadlines. - Experienced colleagues practically bullied out of the firm by senior management. No support given in the form of training or development. If you don’t know something and ask for support this will be seen as being incompetent which leaves you feeling not able to approach anyone about anything. - As a result of the above tone set from the top, unfortunately employees ultimately have their own interests to prioritise and there is a lot of finger pointing to cover own backs to avoid being black marked within the team. Whilst there are some good individuals within the team, team cohesion is not always evident due to toxic culture. - High employee turnover within the team. - PE owned company so only care about bottom line. Team and firm generally clearly lacks a clear strategy. This will come at the expense of employees.
