Highly toxic culture and no room for development
Avantages
Acumen of few senior consultants and flexibility (which is drastically being reduced)
Inconvénients
Quantis has experienced significant challenges in recent years, including an extremely toxic top-down culture, laxism with erratic and unethical behaviors, multiple wrong changes of leadership and business direction, heavy workload, and limited opportunities for career development. These factors have contributed to extremely high employee turnover in all branches mainly in Europe and a decline in overall morale. While Quantis once boasted a team of talented and experienced consultants, that brough the richness to learn from for junior consultants, many have left the company due to concerns about nepotism, favoritism, and a lack of transparency. Additionally, the company's decision-making processes often prioritize financial goals over broader sustainability objectives, leading to a disconnect between the company's stated mission and its actual practices. The paradox of a sustainability consultancy firm that does greenwashing and whitewashing inside out. No mystery why there is no ESG reporting even if claiming to be experts. Salaries are not fair and transparent and fall short compared to consultancy market average. Carrier development opportunities are extremely limited. Performance reviews and promotions are unprofessional, discriminatory, biased and sexist. Leadership privilege the small circle of internal friends even if people do not have the hard or soft skills for certain positions. There are employees’ recurrent concerns about the company's internal culture including multiple instances of harassment, discrimination, and a lack of accountability masked as a “relaxed and family culture”. While Quantis promotes itself as a diverse and inclusive organization, employees report a very different internal reality and unfortunately HR and other support functions are useless.
