deVere Group reviews

- The senior staff in Malta do treat individuals like children. I've seen people get screamed at - On the phone for long periods during the day. - Cold calling unsuspecting individuals - Spending your life on LinkedIn trying to "source" people to call - Being an investigator/stalker - seeing where individuals work, checking out their history to see if they could be rich or of "high net worth", gathering phone numbers of their companies - calling their companies and asking to receptionists to speak to them. - Be ready to use your savings to keep yourself afloat. The base salary they offer is not great. (In the country I worked in, bar/restaurant staff would earn more than me) - Towards the end of my employment, I had successfully helped the Financial Advisor/Regional manager make some deals and secure business - I was told that I would see the results in my pay packet..... This never appeared. - The amount of calls you are expected to make daily is ridiculous. You will get bored. I dialled fake numbers in the end.

There will be no training provided once you are on location. 95% of the consultants across all locations are under-qualified and subsequently giving shady advice often on customers life savings. Double standards between coordinators and consultants - consultant job significantly easier than coordinator, yet the commission is much higher. Consultants rely on coordinators to create business but offer little in the way of support. Sexist and Chauvinistic working environment. On location retainer/salaries are extremely low and promises on pay e.g. half of your accommodation paid for, are held over your head like an incentive, they aren't guaranteed. The company requests Malta graduates write glassdoor reviews on site creating a false sense of security to potential employees. This is a telesales job - 100+ calls a day, don't be conned into thinking you will be a finance professional within 18 months. The financial knowledge around the offices is fairly abysmal outside of a handful of senior figures who are based in Malta. A pyramid scheme.
