Poor Management and Abrupt Dismissal – A Disappointing Experience in an HR Role - HR Assistant Stoltd Partner Employee Review

I had the incredible opportunity to work at Stoltd Partner for almost two years, and it was truly my first real professional experience. The team is small but very close-knit, making it easy to connect with everyone we work with. We loved sharing moments during our lunch breaks, which helped foster strong relationships within the team. Our manager in Dublin trusts us immensely and is always there to support us when we need it. Cooperation with managers in other countries has also been smooth and positive. The level of trust we receive allows us to be independent in our work and gives us the chance to improve things, which is incredibly enriching for a first experience. Moreover, we have the opportunity to engage in numerous evaluations and ensure excellent follow-up on our projects, which enhances our learning and development.As for the working conditions, the office is excellently located right in the city center. We have a great deal of flexibility with our working hours (we complete 8 hours a day but have the freedom to adjust our schedules). Overall, my time at Stoltd Partner has been fulfilling, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive and empowering environment.

I do not have any cons

Flexible start/end of day between 8-9am/5-6pm, WFH allowed 2 days a week. The team is friendly and helpful. Training is lacking/non-existent on some posts, but they are open about it and they don't mind explaining or the occasional mistake.

Salary is low for Dublin. No HRIS software and the current excel files system could be improved upon. Same for file servers and safety backups, it lacks practicality in the more tech-savvy way. Not at all a big issue though, just an older system that could be improved. Interactions with the upper management is distance-only, as they are in France/Angola. This, along with the lack of proper training, leaves new employees in the dark on most matters of how the company works globally because they are the ones who manage almost everything and not having them on hand to ask basic questions is bothersome at times.
