Pros
- broad expertise and solutions - International clients -Some great research experts - some great people on a personal and professional level who can teach you a lot
Cons
-poor planning just focus on monthly sales, not mid / long term plans - very poor management of people and ressources : best performers are rewarded with more and more projects and responsabilities with immense pressure until they cannot handle it and then have to quit or burn out (4 cases in the last 4 months) - low performers are kept in their position but will not be encouraged to improve or do better whatsoever : this management rewards mediocrity while the best are encouraged to quit -Human ressources is inexistent -People are asked to work extra hours during nights, and week ends -Management do not listen but is always keen to showcase their "so called" Ipsos values but they never apply it to themselves -lagging behind the others agencies on innovation -last but not least the previous CFO has misappropriated the employee bonuses! But he still get another job in Switzerland... ha ha
