Pros

No company is perfect I guess, but what I like about working at Wood Mackenzie is that management listens, cares and tries to do something about improving a situation. I believe the company is sincere. You also are encouraged to really challenge yourself and what's perceived as the conventional wisdom of the day. Definitely open minded to new ideas and innovation. Everyone has the opportunity to make a difference and everyone's opinion matters. Wood Mackenzie is an amazing place to learn - there's so much knowledge and experience to learn from. The company's reputation is such that we get access to really senior levels of major companies in the energy space - seeing your work being presented (or even presenting it yourself!) is incredibly motivating and empowering.

Cons

Some teams just don't have sufficient people to really deliver on the free thinking that's desired, so while its really engaging work, people are also pretty stretched to deliver their core workload.

Pros

Good benefits for the size of the company Some managers are willing for employees to balance work/life commitments World class vacation benefits.

Cons

The leadership team is primarily comprised of highly paid expats that chose to stay in the US. The leadership team doesn't care about developing the staff and promotions are not based upon demonstrated delivery of performance but rather based on how politically connected you are to the decision makers. The business does not promote teamwork nor does it value providing developmental feedback to employees who want to make a difference. The organization doesn't value inclusiveness and doesn't treat employees fairly and consistently. The business doesn't stand firm on its commitments when extending sign-on bonuses and relocation assistance.
