Pros

Good learn to learn the basics of Market Research methods

Cons

Very little value creation for clients. Most of the work you put in is to confirm something that clients already know. Unnecessary importance given to PPTs. Story extracted from data has very little merit and because it's mostly low sample, it's at best indicative but presented as something that is set in stone. To add to the above list, the company suffers from lack of basic house keeping features - Glorifying late nights and overtime, Low Pay, Horrible work life balance, No empathy from leadership. If you are interested in MR, suggest to join a tech driven boutique companies that are coming up - Survey Monkey, Question Pro, Customer Guage etc.

Pros

Good research knowledge If you are having medical problem the management will be very cooperative

Cons

Late nights (12 hours is considered to be normal working hour, things like it's not late night as it is not even 10 PM is quite common narrative, if you have deliverable working hour of 15 hours is quite normal ) Exploitation Working weekends (out of 52 weekends at least half will be working) Crazy work life balance (you might be going to house at 11 PM when you manager might call you and ask you to come back to office, most of the time weekends are considered to be working even with out asking) For 3 months or more you will not get any leaves or holidays or weekends and then when you will ask for leaves your request will be rejected by giving logic like someone is already on leave so in 8-9 months only 10-15 teams can take leave, which is inadequate for other team members Time for family and loved ones are considered to be not-productive No intention to change ('It is going on for 35 years so it will go on' is a common narrative here) Glorification of mental and physical fatigue If you are in domestic team, crazy dress code rule
