Pros

I honestly loved my time at Walters! Hitting the sales goals each month can definitely be stressful, but the goals are not unattainable so long as you are willing to put in the time and work. I loved the flexibility that came with the sales role, but it also requires some serious personal time management skills to ensure you are scheduling enough tours to hit your target sales numbers. Training/onboarding was better than previous companies I had worked for. The one downside of Walters is that they seem to do a massive overhaul of their systems/processes/hierarchy structure almost every year, which can cause strain on both employees and brides. Overall, would still definitely recommend working for Walters Wedding Estates! Pros: Great hospitality company, lots of opportunities to learn, sales offered nice bonus structure

Cons

Stressful, a bit chaotic with how frequently they change up the overall structure

Thank you for sharing your detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time with Walters and found value in the training, flexibility, and opportunities the role provided. We understand that sales goals can be challenging, but it’s great to know that you found them attainable with dedication and effective time management. Your feedback regarding frequent changes in structure is incredibly valuable. While we strive to adapt and grow to remain competitive, we’ll certainly consider ways to refine and optimize existing processes rather than implementing major overhauls. We truly appreciate your suggestion and will take it to heart as we continue to improve. Thank you for your contributions during your time here, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors!
