Pros

Perks and free office goodies. Company away days and team socials. Good starting salary for entry-level employees. Opportunities for quick progression when you first start. A good stepping stone into consultancy or investment. Diversity and Inclusion events and Mental Health events - though ironically, I was mostly too busy and stressed to attend them.

Cons

Stressful - This is a high pressure role and I sometimes found myself in tears at work. Competitive between peers - Instead of promoting a team approach, Associates were all pitted against each other, with their performance against their targets displayed in a list in number order for everyone to see. Poor work-life balance - I worked an hour or two overtime nearly every day. I was also told I had to respond to our clients within half an hour until 10pm each night, meaning it was hard to relax or switch off and clients felt entitled to my free time. The company would promote mental wellbeing as a focus for employees but the culture there meant I felt I had to put myself under significant stress just to achieve ‘normal’ results. Short-staffed and constantly changing staff - many people tended to burn out in 1-2 years of working in this role so there was a high staff turnover and simply not enough people working on the projects we were being sent.

Thanks for taking the time to give us some feedback. The wellbeing of our employees has always been a top priority, so we provide tools and resources to support, including the events that you mentioned, mental health providers, and in-house Mental Health First Aiders (global, trained go-to employees). As a client-services business, we know that our work ebbs and flows with our clients' and that occasionally means working outside of business hours. We offset that work with benefits such as our Work From Anywhere program, competitive compensation, and other flexible policies. We're always open to feedback about how we can do this better and ensure all of our employees have the bandwidth to thrive at Third Bridge. If you have more ideas to share, please reach out to team@thirdbridge.com.

Pros

They hire really cool people as Associates.

Cons

No work-life balance, a lot of micromanagement, and employees get little recognition for the hard work they put in.
