I will always recommend AK, the CEO is fantastic, he is alway available on the phone to resolve issues or any concerns of his consultants . Thanks to all AK staff for good working experiences.

Cons

Need to improve more in negotiate salary increment for consultant who have served for a period of time(1year and above)

Pros

Good team if you are lucky Good missions Parties

Cons

Body-shopping No possible carrier development, and no follow-up on you. You will be fired once you without project Everything is about money and after you signed no one cares about what is with you till you bring money. The manager makes faces behind your back, while smiles when you know you see him.

The place not to be !

Pros

There is literally 0 advantage related to the career evolution or salary. Maybe if you are an entry level you can gain experience otherwise Nothing !

Cons

There is definitely 0 advantage, in term of salary it's the only thing you can have. The CEO is making at least 40% margin while it's usually 20% in the other companies. there is no lunch vouchers or insurance. if you want to have a pay raise ? please forget about it. If you have an opportunity to go internally he will never accept. he rather refuse and fire you than accept and let you have the chance of your life. what matters for him is his commissions, otherwise he doesn't care as far as he is not losing money.

Hi, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to see that you had such a feeling. We will take it into account to try to understand how we can improve things to get people more satisfied at Advisory Key. 1. In terms of evolution many of our employees evolve at Advisory Key in terms of positions, acquiring new skills and responsibilities. 2. Profit margin: we would be happy to have the profit margin you indicated but the reality is much lower. We are a company and one of our objectives is to make money as every companies to be viable but our main goal is to be human and to have our employees and clients satisfied/happy. We try to find a good balance. 3. Salary raise: most of our employees receive a pay raise after their annual appraisal. There is always a link with the quality of the services provided and the involvement of the employee in the development of our company. 4. We try to avoid that our consultants are recruited by our clients in order to - have a long-term relationship with them - to continue to propose good services with high-qualified consultants who evolve and acquire new skills If our consultants are recruited by our clients we cannot provide consultants-experts what is our core-business. As a result we wouldn’t be able to build a win-win & long-term relation with our clients. For several months we had more than 5 consultants who were on the bench at Advisory Key. They are not fired. They help us in our recruitments and train our recruiters on the business side.
