Pros

Entelect is a great company. It is an especially amazing company to start at if you are a graduate. I started in the Grad programme and received huge amounts of help, support and growth. From my view (only having worked at Entelect) they pay well.

Cons

Recently there was a massive issue with 2020 Graduates that joined the company, the "grads" anonymously submitted their salaries, to see how each other are being compensated. While I dont think that they did the best thing, threatening disciplinary hearings and dismissals is not the right way to handle the incident in my opinion. This really disappointed me, I expected management to enforce our company culture better "Fellowship sets us apart". Now here we are, taking sides on whether or not Entelect is trying to keep their costs low by keeping salary processes quiet, while employees go above and beyond their work to keep Entelect's clients happy.

Hi there. It is unfortunate that this matter has spilt over to other individuals who weren’t involved in all the communications. As with any scenario related to sensitive information (such as salaries), context is important. Our salary process has always been transparent, from the videos on how it works to the open invite to our people to speak to the People team for the specific context. We take transparency seriously, as you would have seen from all our posts, state of the company addresses and AMA’s throughout the past year because it is a core part of fellowship. What shouldn’t be transparent though, is openly discussing other people’s salaries. This is a principle that we will uphold. All the individuals that were involved in sharing salary information were called into a session and explained the implications of their actions. As grads, we understand that the gravity of sharing salaries might not be understood, which is why there was a session dedicated to explaining this to all individuals involved. I want to openly invite you to reach out to me or anyone in the People team directly and we would be happy to explain the context, the understanding and the actions that were taken. In light of this message though, I plan to host another salary process AMA session with the company in the coming weeks as a refresher into how we do this. I will make sure it is done before our next bi-annual performance and salary review. - TR

Thank you for your kind words and for being part of the Entelect journey for the past few years! We appreciate the honest feedback on senior progression. The bar is high, but we are always looking at how to make those pathways clearer and better supported.
