Pluspunten

The senior talent of this company really stands out to me, ensuring that the work product delivered is of a great standard. What it means for me is that I am able to learn about the good practices that make differentiate a good report from a great one. The learning curve especially at junior to mid senior level is outstanding and the organisation is extremely supportive of individual growth. The work culture is something that I have found to be very unique. We have ample of opportunities, and most of all flexibility for working. Its a relaxed environment overall, not a lot of stress or overtime. They are understanding and supportive of mental health and advocate for employee wellbeing.

Minpunten

Some of the company's growth initiative have not yielded the expected results and the competitors are growing at a better pace, but I would say these things can take time. To some extent, there have been teams where micromanagement is an issue but that is all dependent on who your manager is, or who they are reporting to. In terms of pay, they are competitive but the monetary growth can feel slower than other companies even if you are a good achiever.

Pluspunten

Good people with good intentions. Work-life balance is above average.

Minpunten

The reality of being owned by a PE backed firm: Large scale cost reductions including mass layoffs. Woefully lean teams requiring higher workloads including much time spent on tasks outside of primary role. New leadership- since the hiring of Jason Liu, it’s hard to discern if we can trust the GLT. Observations causing concern include blame shifting, lack of accountability, and statements inferring that radical candor is actually not welcome (despite devoting an entire training module on the topic). Directors and managers do not have any power, and yet they are our conduit to executive leadership. The work has no joy anymore. We spend our days putting out fires on internal data issues, chasing lofty goals with next to nothing budgets, and trying to keep up with the ever-changing policies and procedures that impact our day to day. I rarely get a chance these days to do the job I was hired for.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. Wood Mackenzie is undergoing a bold transformation as we sharpen our focus on delivering the most connected, trusted intelligence for the energy and natural resources industries. This has brought change across many parts of the organisation as we evolve how we work, how we operate, and how we support our customers. We recognise that periods of transformation can feel challenging and, at times, uncomfortable. At the same time, this work is central to our long-term ambition to transform the way we power our planet and to build a Wood Mackenzie for the future. We remain committed to creating an environment where people can do meaningful work, contribute to a bold mission, and feel proud of the role they play in what we are building together. If you haven't already done so, I'd recommend speaking about the issues you've raised through our internal feedback channels such as our your line manager or speak to your HRBP. All feedback on Glassdoor is summarised and shared with leadership monthly so I can guarantee the themes in your review will be aired. We appreciate your honesty and your dedication to Wood Mackenzie over the past decade. Even when the feedback is challenging, it helps us build a stronger company and a better experience for our people. Thank you again for sharing your perspective. Eilish Henson, EVP, HR
