Top Notch Organization - Recensione dipendente - Sales presso Pen Test Partners

Nothing that you couldn't get from another pentesting firm

1) The founding partner is a narcissist 2) "Managing Consultant" is just a title for techies who are happy to volunteer to do a bit of people management for free. 3) They refuse to pay market rate due to the partners having rose tinted glasses 4) Partners love to dangle a carrot to entice employees to do something but when said thing is done, zero reward is given. 5) Company culture is completely toxic, makes sense as to why they hired a head of culture. 6) It's very evident that you are just an employee number, unless you are happy to get pally with a founding partner. 7) Could be here all day writing cons

The technical ability of hardware, IOT & CHECK consultants is unmatched across the industry. Experiences with the finance, IT and HR team were also always pleasant and productive.

I joined the company in 2020, drawn by promises of growth and development — that hard work would lead to opportunity. Within six months, several key team members left, creating significant disruption across clients and internal operations. As I advanced, it became clear that gaps in leadership and communication were widening. Despite consistently working long hours, taking on additional responsibilities, and demonstrating my readiness for progression, opportunities were withdrawn without explanation. When I raised concerns, I was met with closed discussions that excluded HR or senior oversight, leaving me feeling dismissed and unsupported. I was later promoted after multiple interviews by a higher leadership team, but the role came with minimal pay adjustment in line with my current team's salary increase — Which was far below peers delivering similar work. When I requested the pay rise that had been promised after 12 months in the role, I was instead advised to reduce my pension contributions to “save money,” which was disheartening. Over time, I watched many talented colleagues leave due to low pay, lack of recognition, and unfulfilled commitments. Still, I hold deep respect for those who continue to give their best within the business. From my perspective, it now seems the company is positioning itself for a potential sale rather than the previously stated plan of an IPO benefiting staff.
