Pros

Data trainers do care about their students but the company is tarnished by the use of exit fees

Cons

The exit fees are the most significant drawback of working with Kubrick Group. The company enforces a costly exit fee if you choose to leave before the end of the contract, which can feel exploitative, especially for early-career professionals who may realize that consulting isn’t the right fit. This policy creates a restrictive environment where employees might feel trapped. For many, this feels like a penalty for wanting career flexibility or discovering that the role isn’t what they expected. The company’s policies around contracts and fees are not as transparent as they could be, and the exit fee can come as a shock if not carefully reviewed. This structure seems designed to retain employees through financial penalties rather than employee satisfaction or growth opportunities. Kubrick’s use of these unethical exit fees has been covered in the mainstream press and graduate fog.

Pros

This is a good place to go to grow and explore new skills lots of great people to work with here and it was a great place to start my career. The business has grown and changed over the past 3 years I’ve been here and before it had a more start up feel, now it’s reforming to more of the consultancy track.

Cons

Low pay compared to other consultancies.

Pros

The training program in London was great. I met a bunch of wonderful people that I still engage with now.

Cons

They laid off a third of the consultants waiting to be placed with a client in the US. This is their second time doing this after saying it wouldn't happen again.
