Pros

Working in the Santa Monica office has been an incredibly unique experience. You get the benefits and infrastructure of a larger company, but with the energy, excitement, and pride of a small startup. The office is growing incredibly fast and doesn't show signs of stopping, so there is tons of opportunity for anyone who joins to move up if they have the right skills to be client facing and the ability to manage others. The location of the office is beautiful (6 blocks from the beach) and the team is incredibly supportive.

Cons

Some of the clients an be very demanding and often have long days, which can require you to be on you email past normal work hours in order to service their needs

Hi - Thank you for writing this review. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying the opportunities with the expansion of our West Coast office. While it can be frustrating at times working long hours, if this is a constant issue please speak with your manager as we can discuss options to alleviate pressure. Additionally, we have tried to ensure the bridge from NYC to LAX offices with having our new joiners in the LAX office train for two weeks in NYC which has been a great experience for those new joiners. Please keep the ideas coming. Thank you for your support and keep up the great work! - Team Third Bridge

Pros

Good entry-level opportunity with exposure to fast-paced, client-facing work. The company hires driven, sociable individuals and can be a strong starting point for building communication, prioritization, and execution skills in a high-performance environment.

Cons

High turnover and inconsistent management quality significantly impact the employee experience. Success is heavily dependent on your team lead and manager, with limited recourse if you’re placed under ineffective leadership. In my experience, poor communication, lack of emotional intelligence, and unclear expectations from management made it difficult to succeed and negatively affected day-to-day productivity. Internal processes around performance management and PTO lacked transparency. I was placed on a PIP and terminated shortly after (within a week) in a way that felt abrupt and not aligned with prior communication, which was initially framed as a discussion around pending PTO. There were also delays in PTO approvals, and I experienced issues with compensation adjustments following a promotion that required follow-up to resolve.
