Pros

Very smart and kind coworkers 5 weeks vacation Good work/life balance Industry leader Decent pay

Cons

Departments are very competitive and toxic to one another, even though they should be working together to better the company. Leadership is dysfunctional at times, which turns into a very unorganized vision day to day. A lot of processes and information lives inside individual heads, making onboarding and learning the WoodMac process an absolute nightmare.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
