Pros

-Some offices don't drug test -You can look for other jobs while you're here.

Cons

PLEASE read if you're about to take a role here. Management is not on your side, Bain Capital ownership means they're stripping away the few perks of working here (PTO). The average work week here for junior employees is 50-65 hours a week, while senior management is never online or perpetually on leave. The average tenure here (assuming you're not layed off) is 8 months to a year. Please be skeptical of the 5 star reviews you're reading, this company has been laying people off and it's impossible that someone could have a 5 star view of this company at this present time. This company is in structural decline, I urge anyone taking on a job to research the financials of a company before taking on a role. This review applies to all Kantar offices, domains, and sub brands. Anything with a K, your experience will be like this. You can get a role somewhere better if you just keep applying! Believe in yourself!

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
