Pros

None that I can recall

Cons

Bullying, oppressive culture. “Churning” files for fees the priority more than the client

Hi, Thanks for leaving us your feedback. I'm sorry to read that you felt the culture was oppressive, that’s absolutely not what we want. Our values are clear that we want to be supportive, approachable, open-minded and inclusive. As this hasn’t been your experience I’m naturally disappointed. We take any allegation of bullying really seriously so I’d encourage you to raise this directly with hrqueries@dacbeachcroft.com with more details and the HR team will look into your allegations further. Alternatively, one of our Dublin Partners would be happy to meet you face-to-face to talk about your concerns confidentially, we can arrange this via the email address above if this would help? I was confused about the comment around the employment department as no one in the Dublin employment team is currently working on an internal matter. The Dublin engagement survey indicated good levels of workplace engagement which we want to continue to improve upon, therefore your feedback is appreciated. Many Thanks

Bullying and low wage

Pros

Some folks are helpful and nice. They are really helpful, and honest especially when it comes to expressing their want to leave the job.

Cons

A small number of people operate as if they own the company and bully others. There is far too much gossiping going on as opposed to actual work. Lots of overtime that go unnoticed and low salary. No career apportunity.

Hello, thank you for your review and I'm genuinely sorry to hear you are so unhappy in work. We believe that we do give people the opportunity to speak up, and would certainly encourage it - bullying is absolutely not something we tolerate. Can you speak to your Location Head, a mental health first aider or your HRBP ? If not then do contact Ben in the Employee Relations team and he can discuss what's going on with you and how he can help. Our cultural principles set out how as a Firm we are supportive of colleagues, this isn't lip service so do speak up and we'll help.
