The teammates were fun and the pay was great. Since cold calling, in 99% of the job, your persuasion skills improve.

Dislikes

The job : The company is not an intellectual place - the job is basically that of a call center employee. The clients basically want to speak to industry experts to understand the industry for investment and other purposes. So as a Third Bridge employee your role is to comb profiles of LinkedIn and other job portals to find the bestperson to share this expertise. You then call multiple people and try to convince them to share industry learning on a call with the client. The more calls facilitated, the greater the bonus. While it calls itself a research company, there is sadly no research done. The pay: Very good and if you hit target you make some more money. Work Culture and leave: The work culture is rigid and the boss and team leaders in the Mumbai office are quite apathetic to family emergencies, issues with fellow colleagues, etc. The official hours are 8.45am - 6pm but more often than not you end up working till 8pm and sometimes even 12am if there is an international client. You are given only 15 days of annual leave and festivals like Diwali, Christmas, Ghanesh Chaturthi, Holi, etc. are all included in these 15 days, so if you want to get a holiday on any of these days you have to apply for it. Further, if too many people have already applied for the same day then you are likely to be spending Diwali at work. You have to explain your reason for taking a long leave and if your reason is not satisfactory, be prepared to be denied leave. Sick leave is also cross questioned even after a medical bill (which is compulsory) is submitted. Career Growth: Promotions are based on how often you meet targets through call conversions. So for some, who can't handle the pressure and the monotonous calling, this can be quite suffocating and depressing. Conclusion: The work culture is terrible and the work itself is depressing. So if money is all you are looking for, then this is your place....Read More
