Chartwell Consulting Reviews

Unfortunately, this company is not the place to be right now. I would stay away. The analyst position, with its 6-month, extendable, probational period, currently feels like a meat grinder for college graduates. November and the first half of December of 2024 (1.5 months), they asked 4 analysts to leave, two of which started in September. With how few projects they have going right now, it feels like being put on project, at any junior rank, is a test where failing to achieve an opportunity may get you fired or pip'd. For some projects, the scope is just off. At the moment, it is very common to work 11-12 hours a day on-site and then have a couple of hours of evening work (which is fine with some people, but just not what this firm advertises). The last main con is the lack of professionalism by some of the managers and up. This company is very young age-wise across the board, and it shows in some of the ways that situations are handled. I feel like little mistakes are nitpicked just because managers think they need to say something, and that managers can be pretty unprofessional in how they deliver feedback, whether that's letting emotion into their points, or delivery negative feedback by abruptly pulling you aside.

Chartwell treats new hires poorly. You and your time will not be respected. But the main issue is that the business outlook is quite bad currently, I truly would not recommend starting at this company right now.
