Pros

-Paid training scheme -The course is well detailed and the teaching is of high quality -Opportunity to interview with bank and other organisations where it is difficult to get an interview slot -Free coffee/tea/fruit/biscuits -Pool table -Free takeaway and beer on a Friday -Nice, modern office -Friendly and supportive atmosphere -The training definitely helped me secure a place with another employer (more details in cons)

Cons

-Treated like a child at times although some alumni need this form of "encouragement" - Minimum wage (however you are being paid to be trained so it's not that much of a con) -Main issue is the low rate of placement for the alumni; by the end of the training programme less than half of the alumni had been placed. Personally I was hired by a company that has no relationship with MThree, so my advice is get your CV out to alternative employers as a back up. My first interview through MThree was a couple of weeks after completing the training and being off the payroll; the interviews I was offered were either unrelated to my training or had partial relevance. - Your salary (if placed) is roughly a third of what the affiliate is paying MThree to employ you; that's their business model and it's fair in my opinion but some see this as a con given you can earn a better salary if you are hired directly rather than through MThree

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to write a review on Glassdoor. Feedback is very important to us and we are always looking at ways to improve our programme. It's great that you have recognised some of the features that we can offer to our graduates. We pay you whilst you are training which leads on to a great graduate salary if you go on to being placed with one of our clients. MThree also have highly experienced trainers who are able to really add value to our training and we aim to do this in an environment which allows you to be successful. We have a high success rate in placing our trainees and if we cannot place you within the 8 week training period, we will still continue to look for a role for you. It is clearly in our best interest to find trainees a placement with one of our clients but unfortunately this is not always possible. I am very sorry to hear that on this occasion we were unable to secure you one. I am however pleased to hear that our training enabled you to find a role outside of MThree. It shows that our programme is valuable and that anyone that has successfully completed the training is able to add value in their new role. Our clients will often set their own criteria when looking for a graduate for their team. Alumni trainees are then put forward based on these criteria as well as their aptitude, effort and conduct during the programme. I would welcome the oppurtunity to discuss your experiences in more detail and would be very happy to discuss the training programme with you or anyone else that would like to hear more information about MThree. Kind regards, Ben Wong Chief Technology Officer ben.wong@mthreeconsulting.com

Pros

During my time at mthree, the company underwent significant restructuring, including numerous layoffs and the transition of departing from Wiley. While there were challenges, the mission behind the Hire, Train, Deploy model was strong in theory and gave me a sense of purpose in helping applicants find opportunities. The North America Talent Acquisition team was the highlight of my experience—led by people who genuinely care about their work and the candidates they support. They are what make mthree so great.

Cons

I've witnessed upper management fail to support an employee after a client placed them in a difficult situation. The entire model of mthree is to provide support from beginning to end of the candidate journey. That experience made it clear to me that mthree was not a long-term fit. The sales department has unstable relationships with clients, which directly impacts the quality and consistency of work available to consultants. As a result, those who complete the 8-week training program often find themselves in uncertain positions once their training ends. Additionally, upward mobility is extremely limited due to the company's small size, making it necessary to look elsewhere for steady career growth.
