Pros

Congenial working environment, colleagues were once focused on research and knowledge sharing so plenty to learn from each other. Quality of analysis is superb. Great work-life balance

Cons

Repeated restructuring/banding is a pain and distraction to employees. Loss of key sales personnel that will steal business away eventually. Power struggle and politics seem to be the current focus of employees and bosses, a sad sight in stark contrast to the good old days....

Hi there, I'm the APAC Head of Research at Wood Mackenzie and I wanted to take the time to thank you for your service at the company and your feedback. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the working environment and were able to experience a good work/life balance. We certainly value this - we care about each other, we are committed to wellness and balance for all. Thanks also for the compliment on the quality of our analysis. I'd like to address your point around restructuring. Yes, we are in the midst of a change process which can be a challenge but it is so that we can do better, embracing management improvement techniques as well as technology to improve existing processes and to unlock the vast amount of creativity and innovation across our 1,300 people. We are not perfect but we strive hard to do what's right for each other and for our clients. Gavin

Pros

Health insurance, five weeks vacation, work-family balance, opportunity to work from home

Cons

No leadership, pompous arrogance of mid-managers and senior analysts, green and inexperienced executive management, buddy system, disconnect between departments and toxic environment in general, generations of families working together in the same offices and often on the same teams.
