Pros

For a beginner, one can learn a few basics on market research and report writing. Satisfactory Salary for a not so god MBA pass outs.

Cons

No updated tools used for Market Research, totally dependent on google and other databases. Management including HR, Admin, APM, PM and other heads are not satisfactory to meet their expected duties. Little learning with too much workload. Unequal distribution of work among employees and all depends on manager's personal choices.
