Pros

Benefits and WFH model allows for work/life balance.

Cons

When I came on board, I was expecting to work with a diverse team. I'm litteraly the only African American member of a team of over 200. All you need to do is go to LinkedIn and look at the employee profiles. Unfortunately, I wasn't told to this until after I was hired.

We encourage you to reach out to your HR Business Partner and/or Global Head of DEI to talk about this (you can find their contact info on our employee intranet), confidentially if you prefer, who can connect you with additional information on our plans going forward. We'd also love to hear your ideas and encourage you to get involved with our Black BRG to help advise us on how to make a bigger positive impact in this area.

Pros

Good experience in terms of learning the market research industry

Cons

Bad salaries that are only getting worse due to leadership decision to not give salary increases. Quality of the data is also declining due to leadership negligence

Pros

Best retail sales data coverage. Good life balance depending on your vertical and role. Mostly good people trying to do a good job (despite continued squeeze on resources and challenging technology). Good place to for early career to learn catman insights and retail analytics basics. A lot of work was done a couple of years ago as a prescriptive solution to build culture- some of it stuck.

Cons

Agile competitors are outpacing our ability for fast, predictive power. Increasingly clients just want the data for use in more cutting edge analytic platforms, or their own internal modeling. A lot of time is now spent policing client use of data. Also, there is clear focus on throttling down client facing talent and offshoring operational tasks. Senior client staff job scope, continues to expand as they absorb many accounting/finance/HR/operational tasks (without compensation).
