It's and okay place

Pros

Decent health benefits, PTO, and sick time. You get to know everyone in the building and it tends to feel more like a family at times. Managers try to make it a bit fun for each department by doing potlucks, celebrating holidays, and decorating the space. They have a game room where you can hang out during breaks. This job helped me get a stable income and more job experience. I think it's a good place to work if you're in need to stability financially. As long as you show up and work hard you'll be fine.

Cons

You're basically working at a high tech factory. They do micromanage bathroom breaks or how many times you get up from your desk. Speed is also something they are super concerned with. Sometimes over time is mandatory (usually only 4-8 hrs on busy seasons). The company will work you as much as you allow them to and supervisors can be a bit iffy sometimes. They do try to make up for that by doing all the extra "team building" things. Certain departments have more pressure on them because of what they do. A raise is not really is not really a thing that happens unless you change from job positions.

Pros

- You can learn market research from the best expert here - High-profile clients and you may present the finding to the C-level - Nice, friendly, and supportive teammates. - Generous WFH policy, unpaid leaves, and extensive learning sources. - Starting early 2021, workers can have an access to 24/7 Telepsychiatry (free consultation)

Cons

- Crazy long working hours where you can expect to work from morning to morning (typical research agency) - Complicated business process and some outdated tools for the project. - As the turnover is high, some teams have problems with manpower planning and messy work documentations. - Researchers no longer can work in various industries, we are expected to specialize in only one field (such as only FMCG)
