Pros

Witness first hand the perfect example of how a boss should NEVER be.

Cons

Take everything you're told by Management with a massive fist-full of salt. Get everything you're promised committed to in writing, and then print it just in case. Toxic and pervasive culture of extreme micro-management and overwhelming distrust. Serious absence of career progression opportunities. Uncompetitive commission structure. Paranoid, controlling, rude, bullying and absurdly litigious boss who doesn't absorb feedback or care about his staff.

The Barton Partnership Response
6y
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your time at The Barton Partnership. Any kind of review, whether positive or negative is taken seriously. On the points you’ve listed however, I would challenge your claim that there is an absence of career opportunities within the business. We’ve celebrated a record number of promotions this year alone, opened two international offices and most of our talent is organically home grown. Nearly all of our senior leadership team started as Graduates and worked their way up through the ranks. We review our commission structure bi-annually and undertake competitor analysis to ensure what we offer is market leading and competitive. Staff are regularly trained, invested in and cared for as part of the TBP family. I’d welcome a conversation with you personally on this, so please feel free to reach me directly on Nicholas.barton@thebartonpartnership.com - thank you.

Pros

Great career development at all levels - clear and fair metrics to promotion whether junior or senior. There's a lot of investment in L&D, and personalized training depending on your development areas. Interesting clients - lots of opportunity to work with global brands on senior roles. Fun culture - the New York office is an awesome team. The work quality is very high and you'll learn from your peers, but also have a lot of fun at team socials and events. The whole team genuinely supports each other. Good marketing opportunities - there are opportunities to run podcasts and events with the business supports your with, which help with your on business development. Overall a great place to learn and advance your career in a really nice, high performing culture.

Cons

The leadership team is really strong, but there could be more women in senior roles.
