RXP Group reviews

Shambolic management, no leadership to speak of. Consultants on-site are often left to their own devices. As they need to keep consultants on-site and billable, often people with wrong skills fit are sent out to clients anyway. Sales and accounts people like to push "RXP Lean Agile" with no real comprehension of what Agile entails. Projects are sometimes under-resourced, in order to secure winning bids. Some client sites are way out of the CBD area, which makes commute a major hassle. No "downtime plan" for consultants who are on the bench, which is waste of time and money for the company. No clear career path, and advancement depends on being mates with managers rather than actual achievement.

Not sure the RXP maxim of 'specialism wins' is actually true, at least not for RXP. I found my technical skills eroding over time as I was asked repeatedly to perform roles outside my domain - because the sales people struggled to identify clients a projects with my specialisms. No training offered in my domain even when asking for specific relevant courses or certifications. For senior/principal consultants, as there is not technical career progression, there appears to be no value in being an employee - if you are on the bench you are likely to get fired. Lack of security means you will probably be better off as a contractor. While ostensibly RXP compares well to it's direct competitors, the business model appears identical and I can't see any current advantage being sustainable over the medium to long term.
