Pros
There is a great diversity at Wood Mackenzie. The majority of people who work there are very friendly and very knowledgeable in the industry. There is so much one can learn. Other than the people, I believe that the prime reason people stay at Wood Mackenzie is the benefits. You receive 5 weeks paid vacation, good health insurance and a company 401k match.
Cons
I have seen few opportunities for progression, and I have seen fellow colleagues passed up for promotions. As the company works towards being "more professional" less concern is given to the workers. Because of the lack of career progression and mundane work everyday, it's difficult to be motivated. Technology is also very slow. It's hard to get anything done when the systems are always stalled.
