Pluspunten

- exposure to office politics at its worst, good chance to learn how NOT to run a company, ever - opportunities for quick promotion if you're willing to sign over your soul to partners with no consulting experience - part of WPP - great junior team with tight bonds but mostly are formed because of long hours and oppressive senior management - some work is actually pretty cool, but most of it is market research reporting - client exposure at early tenure if partners like you

Minpunten

- lack of real consultants at this place who know what they are doing - management takes themselves way too seriously is super manipulative and thinks they are way more important than they are - really long hours and low pay, causes people to do things they shouldn't..especially after hours - reactive culture which tends to cause a lot of knee jerking whenever something bad happens - recent poor performance creating a lot of anxiety in the firm, head reductions probably coming soon - part of a much bigger company which drives a lot of politics - lots of brand confusion, mb vermeer, kantar vermeer, millward brown vermeer... Company doesn't know what it is - really low recent bonus payment, if at all

Pluspunten

Hard working associates, mostly bright (and admirable) heads of department. Good benefits. Previous CEO seemed like a genuinely nice guy and would listen to you if you approached him about something.

Minpunten

There’s a lot of reasons why top notch talent has long jumped ship. Great at sounding smart…terrible at actually getting the revenue to avoid the wholesale data asset sell offs going on. Terribly overcomplicated product portfolios with inflexible solutions at higher costs than smaller leading agencies that have outpaced them. Department heads gaslighting everyone under VPs about performance when they aren’t winning the internal Hunger Games and are told to reduce headcount.
