Hi, Thank you very much indeed for your feedback! We appreciate your views, especially as you have a fresh pair of eyes to everything here. You may be glad to hear that we are actively working on improving brand awareness globally. Some examples of this are that we have started a new Twitter account (Third_Bridge) which showcases our forthcoming Forum calls, we are also improving the way we communicate with our WeChat platform in China, we have started doing Equity breakfast and roundtable events in the US, and there are plenty of areas we are exploring on how we can make Third Bridge a company which can help people to make informed decisions about investments. We have also reviewed our salary structure recently. Should you have any other suggestions, then please do send us an email at theteam@thirdbridge.com. Wishing you all the best for your career as a Third Bridger! - Team Third Bridge

Pros

1. The company is trying hard to develop and retain its people, which is a great thing. In Shanghai office, we have a whole set of training that equip you with different work skills, we also have on- job training provided by senior level colleagues (who are all very helpful and supportive) and we occasionally invite expert to give speeches that let you have a general idea of certain industries. You can always find ways to learn about different stuff here. 2. The people here are bright and fun to hang out with (some of my colleagues actually became my really good friends). Most of us share overseas background and similar interests, so we really got along. Some of the colleagues here I met are truly intelligent and resourceful! 3. If you work in operation i.e. "Connection", your monthly bonus can be very good if you work very efficiently and dedicatedly.

Cons

if you work in operation, the hours can be very long sometimes. the learning curve is steep in the first 2 months, and the work can be repetitive afterwards. Different teams has different degree of difficulty

Pros

I've been with Third Bridge with a little more than 2 years. What I find so amazing about this company is that Third Bridge cares for each employee. Growth & Development The company grows very fast both in size and revenues, and has never stopped creating more value for clients and the employees for the past 10 years. Various opportunities are open to current employees and new joiners, with dedicated training and support. Professional & Collaborative Very often, global teams work very closely on the same projects, which allows researchers to understand what they are working on from a very broadened perspective. At the same time, you see on-going professional training on work ethics, business case studies and position-based growth, etc. Transparent and Engaging A lot of decisions are made not from top to down, but from down to top. You can actually notice your voices are being heard and responded every time you share opinions. The C-suites don't seem to be distant as they travel and communicate with global teams regularly. They always deliver clear messages in time to avoid unnecessary confusion. A number of programs, such as the Third Bridge alumni program and exchange program, create the opportunities for employees to learn about how each office operates in different markets, and about how Third Bridge started as Cognolink in London, then became such an amazing fast-growing global company. First Class Collaborators First-class clients, first-class colleagues, first-class mindset and ideas shared

Cons

Despite quite rewarding with a lot of training provided, plus plenty social events/team building to help balance work and balance, it could be frustrating for some new joiners to work with sophisticated clients on various requests as fresh graduates.

Hello!, Thank you very much for your detailed review. We are glad to hear that you are experiencing a very positive time here at Third Bridge and yet all of this while making an incredible difference to the team. You have touched on many of the things that make Third Bridge a really great place to work, and through this we strongly value the feedback. We appreciate that the company does need to work hard at branding itself better and we are in the process of doing this. We have a very good induction program, where employees are given a proper induction and are given a warm welcome when they join the company. If we get the culture, the values and the correct work ethos of the company that fits in with the company's mission then we are in line to become a truly world-class company. Sometimes these things take time but rest assured that we are fixing issues as and when we see them coming. As always, please feel free to send us an email with suggestions at theteam@thirdbridge.com. Thank you again for your review. We wish you much more success. - Team Third Bridge
