Pros

Great colleagues, Mostly interesting research projects, easy access to an international network of research specialists, that will support and give you advice on proposals or reports

Cons

Salary is below average, although workload is way too much at times. Unless you're in the in-crowd with middle/upper management, growth opportunities are very limited. Management and middle management tell completely different stories and lack a clear vision.

Pros

Plenty of opportunities and various locations

Cons

You work your tail off using gas, mileage, time, energy, tolls, and consistent but the authenticator who sit in the comfort of their home find any and everything wrong with the survey you fill out. Then, you don't get paid. Their portal that you are supposed to use while on location has connectivity issues or whatever reason they decide to blame it on. So far, I've lost $500.00 with this company. There are many other mystery shopping companies who don't try to cheat you out of money. If I had to guess, they use your pictures and get THEIR money but won't pay their contractors. I would suggest shopping for any other company besides Ipsos!
