Pros

This is a good place to work, management is fair and the talent across the organization is very good. TNS has a strong client list and a good reputation.

Cons

After mergers and being acquired by WPP, many are unsure about the company's future. There is overlap with other WPP businesses so people are unsure about what will get cut and/or merged.

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.
