Pros
The UX team has some of best talent in the industry, level leadership, and a reasonably healthy work culture (for a team of consultants).
Cons
This is a huge multinational research firm. As such, it suffers from many of the telltale issues of companies in that category. The bottom line for me was the unbalanced hours. Every project is across 2+ time zones (often either pacific time or international) and that results in a sort of on call kind of situation at all times. Some of this is par for the course for consultants, just calling that out. Burnout is so common that it happens in cycles, not just occasionally. It wasn’t for me.
