Pros

- Kantar is okay for a first job as it offers exposure to global and regional studies. - [per case to case basis] If you're lucky, you'll be assigned to a manager/senior that actually cares about your career progression and growth in the industry - they very competitive employee benefits

Cons

- no work-life balance - long hours, no overtime pay to promote "work-life balance" - go above and beyond for a "meets expectations" rating
