Pros

Good salary to start your career as an market research analyst. Can work remotely and go into an office whenever you want.

Cons

Lots of internal political stuff especially with the upper management. Manager like positions like to threw you under the bus if they view you as weak/not on par with their level - managers don't provide feedback until the last minute instead of proactively telling you so you can correct any negative comments about performance. They say that they have a good work-life balance but in reality they still expect you to work overtime/weekends then you get penalized if you don't especially if a team manager doesn't mention you should (basically expects you to read their minds).

Pros

Plenty of opportunities and various locations

Cons

You work your tail off using gas, mileage, time, energy, tolls, and consistent but the authenticator who sit in the comfort of their home find any and everything wrong with the survey you fill out. Then, you don't get paid. Their portal that you are supposed to use while on location has connectivity issues or whatever reason they decide to blame it on. So far, I've lost $500.00 with this company. There are many other mystery shopping companies who don't try to cheat you out of money. If I had to guess, they use your pictures and get THEIR money but won't pay their contractors. I would suggest shopping for any other company besides Ipsos!
