Interesting job at well-run company - Analyst Wallbrook Advisory Employee Review

Wallbrook is an ethical firm and does right by its employees. It got through covid without ANY redundancies. When temporary pay cuts were initiated, senior staff took them first and took a higher cut than junior staff – the cuts were all eventually repaid in full. It is also the only firm in its sector to be b-corp certified. The work itself is stimulating and rewarding to anyone interested in international affairs and research. Senior management really cares about their employees and there are lots of opportunities for growth! The firm also gives extremely generous annual bonuses.

Like most professional services firms at the moment, Wallbrook is working mostly remotely, which has its limitations. However there are plans to return to in person work as soon as it is safe to do so.

Quality of the work and clients is high. There aren't many egos - the continuity of staff means a lot of knowledge is shared and passed down to more junior staff and people who join from other companies in the industry.

The company was recently sold. It's not a con but it's starting to become more corporate with more bureaucracy. Decisions seem to take longer to make.
