      Coming here was the wrong move for my career

      Pros

      * Excellent job security * Clock-in, clock-out mentality * Like working in a public sector job with worse pay and benefits * No pressure of the rat-race

      Cons

      * Company is set-up like a fiefdom. Constantly acquiring competitors to remove them as a threat, then promoting as many VPs as possible to do manager level work. Nearly half the company are VPs or higher who manage over the almost half are interns or entry level researchers who are given inflated titles. * Heavy favoritism at play. You're not advancing an inch unless one of the VPs or higher likes you. And you are going to be bullied endlessly if a VP or higher doesn't like you. * Almost no focus on training/development * Nothing you do will ever really matter * Endless pointless meetings without outputs or action items * Below average industry pay * Absolutely no cohesive company structure (the feeling that everyone is just here to collect a check and go home) * Almost all projects are bid at lowest cost to rubber stamp client hyptoheses * What you are told the job is during the candidacy process will be wildly different from your actual experience

      Pros

      Nice people to work with and so much talent. Perhaps the benefits too.

      Cons

      NO WORK LIFE BALANCE, job description doesn't match actual work needed to be done, NO such thing as respecting your after hours or weekends.... so much work you never stop. Burn people down to the core.

      Been a great company to work for!

      Pros

      -Starting salary of 65,000 is pretty good right out of college. They also offer relocation of 10,000 for out of state or 5,000 in state. Taxes on relocation are much higher than those on salary and so they will knock these numbers down by almost 50% but still a nice relocation. -The company is very invested in the well-being and happiness of their employees. -Some of the best managers I have ever worked for, who are supportive and patient with new hires. -Working in an amazing office in WTC 3. It has been very quiet with Covid though and I'm looking forward to there being more energy in the office hopefully in the near future. -Exposed to work throughout many different areas within the company, and then given some direction on what you most enjoy and where you want to go with it.

      Cons

      -They throw a lot of information at you in the beginning and none of it really sticks until you start actually doing the work and being exposed to the job itself. This is likely true of trainings at almost any company though. Overall, it has been great working at Kantar and I couldn't be happier!
