Third Bridge Reviews

High Pressure from clients to perform means that it's not for everyone. It's a highly competitive industry so you need to be willing to go the extra mile. Definitely not a 9-5 job if that's what you are looking for.

The job is awful, and Third Bridge is misleading about what the "Research Analyst" role actually entails. This is a Recruiting role, there is no research involved. Every day consists of sending out email blasts and making cold calls in order to recruit people to consult for Third Bridge. They track the number of email blasts you send and the number of cold calls you make, and you're scolded if either of these numbers is too low. You have a "target" number of people you need to recruit every month, and your performance is 100% measured by whether or not you hit this target. If you do not hit the target in your first four months you are fired. If you've been there a while and miss the quota two months in a row you are put on probation, which means if you don't hit target the following month you're fired. They hire an incredible number of people because they fire a lot of people, and those who don't get fired rarely stay for more than a year. To be clear, the possibility of being fired after only a few months is very real.
