    Can anyone here give me an opinion about Wood MacKenzie? Can you tell me
    a good source where I can find out?

    You can try employment reviews by people who have worked there.

    https://www.glassdoor.ca/Reviews/Wood-Mackenzie-Reviews-E36813.htm?countryRedirect=true

    There may be more than one web site like that one.

    I dunno about Wood Mackensie but using Google on Linux
    obviates the advantages of Linux. DuckDuckGo is where
    to search.

    Those former employee reviews are interesting but not
    arousing interest in working with a company where
    Women are not respecte.

    But in terms of corporate culture, we learn two things:

    1) Wood MacKenzie did not manage to white-wash the glassdoor site.
    With barratry and such. So even if they were white washing teh
    Internet, their reach still has limits.

    2) The employee reviews are quite positive *considering industry norms*.
    The professional woman at my former employer would likely
    have said the same thing.

    You can set up all the "corporate procedures" at work
    that you like, but you cannot fix a culture that way.
