Third Bridge reviews

Compensation and work-life balance can be bad if you are on a bad team, or worse, Spotlight. It is unbelievable how poorly managed this company is. Senior management abide by stale company policies last seen in the McCarthy era, and with an equal degree of paranoia. Expect constant surveillance and questioning of everything you do, as senior management does not trust anyone, probably because of how untrustworthy they themselves are. They prioritize control and power over actual growth and profitability of the company, and promotions reflect this. They worship financiers because they are not intelligent enough to succeed in finance themselves. The fact is, this is a company that preys on young people who don't know better, and deserve better. AVOID.

The job is not as advertised. Research Assistant positon is akin to glorified call center soliciting information. There are unrealistic goals and metrics to be met in the NYC office. The business itself centers on business intelligence stemming from industry expert consultation, this itself can be seen as a glorified networking. Your role is to develop these networks, usually through solicitation. Take that as you will. No comment on managementm
