Pros

You meet very many good developers there

Cons

This is a company with revolving door - one person is hired, another is leaving. They pretend to support your career growth, but do not provide any resources for your learning, even when on bench. Your skills is your concern. Senior management is hypocritical and is out of touch with the consultants and their needs. They just do not listen to your concerns and brush them away. Project methodologies are often not followed properly, day-to-day management is chaotic, consultants are to be blamed for many things. If on bench, you would grab any opportunity to get out, even below your skill level.

Again just fake news. DWS has over 200 pre approved courses that you can do any time and receive a completion bonus of over $1400. Our bench policy is very considerate of consultants and rarely do we have more than 8 on the bench. There is no sole owner of the company it is an asx listed public company. Consultants are expected to follow spinnaker one methodology. Are you sure you ever worked for DWS because if you did you certainly didn’t understand anything.

DWS has a $5000 innovation bonus available to any employee who come up with a good idea. We have just implemented a blueprint for excellence that is all about career management. I assume you mean COO and CFO above, certainly under my watch they are not treated as gods. Danny Wallis CEO
