Pros

Flexible work arrangements with remote work. Some managers do encourage you to use the unlimited PTO but I can imagine this is highly based on whoever your leader is. Good opportunity to get to learn the Circana tool as a person who’s worked in CPG for a while. I have been able to cross paths with some great people.

Cons

WEEKEND WORK. All Client Service processes happen over the weekend. The company is just ok with it. In my opinion, it’s unacceptable. Find a major issue with your clients model? You are bound to fixing any issues you have by either working with offshore teams who work overnight and move slowly, or by working with condescending onshore teams and leaders. Career path unclear unless you want to be a people manager - which is daunting given the lack of support given to managers. Pay is not aligned with the demands of this role.

Pros

Completely remote work. That's about the only pro.

Cons

Let's start with the IT department. A ticket goes in and it's easily ignored for 24 hours. And when you do get a response from IT it will take days, weeks for a computer issue to get resolved. All while your boss and clients are breathing down your neck to meet a deadline but you can't because IT won't fix your computer problems. How the IT department at Circana hasn't completely gotten fired and replaced is beyond me. We hear constantly from senior leadership - speed! Efficiency! - yet can't do that when computers don't work. The work itself: Mind numbingly boring. Circana tries desperately to be consultative and provide insights but they are so far from doing so. Impossible to make any kind of meaningful changes at the company b/c the culture is so slow and plodding. Constant org changes by a bunch of higher-ups who don't know what they are doing. Justify the changes with slogans and phrases but has zero understanding of how these org changes actually will work. Oh -- good luck Circana keeping employees when you don't provide even the basic cost of living increases.
