Pros

The things I look for: Wear what I want - check, casual dress code Lots of autonomy - not really, but steep learning curve so need direction Fun atmosphere - kinda... lots of company happy hours, mostly cool people, but serious workplace Flexible hours - nah, it's 9am-6pm... with crunch times with lots of work and too little time Higher purpose - nah, you're helping rich corporations make more money, but you get paid, so it's OK Pays first-world wages - yes, unlike lots of marketing analysis competition which are off-shoring analytics jobs to the 3rd World and giving up quality and depth of analysis in exchange for volume at cheap labor costs Interesting assignments - yes, mostly.... so long as you like marketing or modeling or both... I mostly do marketing mix modeling (pooled regression)

Cons

See my above comments on the pros... can use more autonomy and flexible hours and a higher purpose (other than making multi-billion dollar companies richer).

Pros

AP was a positive experience for me. From my experience, AP is a meritocracy. Strong performers are rewarded with a fast promotion track and increased responsibility. This was great because I learned much very quickly and I was promoted quickly and constantly challenged. AP has international offices outside of the US and strong performers were encouraged to rotate to offices in Sinapore and Ireland. That was appreciated even though my personal circumstances didn't allow me to take advantage of the travel and exposure to foreign markets. Co-workers are generally good people, friendly and welcoming. Co-workers are mostly friendly and have willingness to work as a team. The business is interesting and I was lucky to have the chance to work with a variety of industries. AP allows you to learn alot about marketing analysis and marketing mix modeling and forecasting and consulting.

Cons

The flipside to fast promotions and variety of clients is a lot of work. I understood that coming in (I did an internship at a Big 4 accounting firm while I was in school, and AP is tame compared to that). AP is very client-focused firm and managers do not like to say "NO" to client demands, and some clients are too demanding. Again, this is not different than the "Big 4" accounting firm that I interned at during college. But, as the old American business mantra goes: "The customer is always right" and AP sticks to that ideal. I found that some managers are stronger than others when it comes to spending time on training. So, experiences may vary due to who your manager is.

Pros

Co-workers are overall nice and social people. Some clients are great to work with and generally there is a lot of opportunity to refine client service skills and work with some big name brands.

Cons

Upper management lacks people management skills and takes little interest in employee development. Technology and services are severely outdated when compared to competition. Nothing ever runs smoothly and management offers very little support in times of crisis (which happens on every project). Company sells projects they don't have the capabilities to execute and expects analysts/consultants to "deal with it". No sense of work-life balance and anyone that tries to challenge this notion is penalized.
