Ipsos reviews

I joined thinking I was signing up for a junior research role — what I didn’t expect was being automatically dumped into something called “Generation Ipsos,” a program nobody warned me about during the interview. This isn’t training — it’s a time-wasting, exhausting mess of pointless activities. From endless so-called “trainings” to forced CSR events that eat into your personal time, all without a single cent of extra compensation. None of these contribute to your actual job growth, yet you're expected to participate like it's part of your job description. The worst part? Zero transparency from the recruiter. Not a word about this program was mentioned. You’re led to believe you’re here to learn and grow in your field — instead, you’re treated like free labor for their internal PR efforts. If you’re a fresh grad thinking of applying, think twice. You deserve to know what you're really signing up for.

Awful work/life balance. Despite being explicit about lack of resource and time to do projects, this would fall on deaf ears. The organisation only cares about making shareholders money so the actual people don't matter. The seniors are very good at saying the right think to appear that they care but actions prove otherwise. Saw clear cases of discrimination and favouritism, given that some people seemed to be highly favoured despite doing little work. Strange environment where people weren't very friendly or open so being in the office often felt uncomfortable and cliquey. Very damaging to mental wellbeing so only worth being here if you can grin and bear it for the connections and clout, which can be used as a springboard for your career.
