Third Bridge reviews

- work/life balance is often very poor and varies massively depending on the type of client, their deadline and most importantly competitiveness of the project as constant responsiveness and speed are key in beating competitors and as well as earning a bigger bonus. This mostly leads to additional work outside of official work hours, occasionally including weekends and is encouraged and often needed to hit targets. At higher levels it is expected to work heavily on providing constant training and development sessions on top of day-to-day responsibilities, which leads to more additional and often redundant work - compensation is well below average for the industry and sector, especially considering that mostly bi/trilingual graduates from top tier universities are hired. This is one of the reasons for the turnover of staff over time (especially in the first 6-12 months) - leadership and standards/processes vary wildly across different divisions and teams which often leaves above-average employees having to make up the difference in work and performance for underachievers that receive preferential treatment or are simply not trained properly - While a lot of emphasis is placed on giving feedback upward , not a lot of this feedback is ever put into action and rather discussed ad nauseam behind closed doors
