Thank you for kind feedback. It's great you've had such a positive experience at WoodMac and thank you for all you do for us. It is really pleasing to note our work-life balance - something that we aim to ensure for all WoodMackers. Your comments on vision are noted and we'll feed that back. We've got plans about this already to make sure strategy and OKRs are really clearly communicated and everyone in the business is clear on our direction of travel! Thank you again

Pros

Opportunities: enough to have kept me for 20 years! People and culture. Guaranteed interesting work in Consulting and Research. Great brand on your CV ( I have been disappointing head hunters for a long time.)

Cons

Business success can be cyclical based on energy markets but we are more diversified than ever.

Thank you for taking the time to share your reflections, and for your remarkable 20 years of contributions to Wood Mackenzie. Your long tenure speaks volumes, and we’re genuinely grateful for your continued commitment to our people, our culture, and the work we do. We’re delighted to hear that the breadth of opportunities, the collaborative culture, and the consistently interesting work in Consulting and Research have been meaningful to you over the years. We’re proud of the teams who create that environment every day, and of the reputation you highlight—our people are the strength behind the brand. You’re right that aspects of our business can be influenced by wider energy market cycles. As you note, we’ve taken deliberate steps to diversify our portfolio so that we remain resilient and well-positioned for long-term growth. We remain committed to strengthening this balance and ensuring we provide stability and opportunity for colleagues across all parts of the business. Thank you again for your decades of dedication and impact. It’s colleagues like you who help shape the organisation we are today.
