Great place to grow

Pros

The greatest asset Millward Brown has is the strong base of smart people to learn from. Experts are very accessible and are willing to jump in and help. Great people around to mentor career development. Big company with a long history means there is a ton of knowledge and resource at your fingertips, but also can have the benefit of a "small office" environment if you work in one of the satellite locations. Very good portfolio of different client industries to work with. Great place for people who enjoy both Analytics and Creativity; more "fun" than the standard research job. Great benefits, including flexible work hours, good work-life balance, and ability to transfer to offices across the globe.

Cons

Training program could be improved

Pros

You will get to work on a variety of projects and get the experience of working on them from start to hand - a great confidence booster for sure!

Cons

The progress is not in lines with the efforts that you will be putting in and at times it may be a huge deterrent

Corporate culture, corporate characters

Pros

Great place for learning corporate politics

Cons

Corrosive corporate culture. This is a place where you have to tick all the right boxes and act in the right manner at all times if you want to progress within the company. This sounds right until you realise that you have to be at the same level as Lightspeed's Senior Management. This is a corrosive workplace populated by Maquiavellans, Narcissists and Psycopaths - the top management is there because they have been able to master each of those characters. They have mastered the ability to accentuate their part in the positive, while downplaying the negatives. The have a great talent for acquiring and taking credit for others' ideas. If you thrive in that environment, you will be rewarded, if you do your job feeding your line manager and don't play the game, you will be valued for the wrong reasons: you will not have a great chance to progress.
