Pros

Work from home approach which has been introduced during pandemic, has been implemented into work schedules pretty much permanently.

Cons

When you join, the salary is pretty much minimum pay and annual salary increases never cover inflation - a salary raise of 3% would be considered generous by Kantar standards. The ONLY possible way of getting a decent pay rise is to get a promotion but these are not that common and there's multiple people working over 10 years at the same salary level as the starter that just joined last week, When you are being promoted then you're expected to learn a lot of specialist knowledge, programming/coding/databases etc and the compensation for that is nowhere near what it needs to be, Now the company is making layoffs and while collective and individual consultancy sessions have taken place, it was just a formality and no feedback has been taken on board - people with massive experience will be exchanged for cheap employees for India (roughly 80% saving). We are still supposed to come in once a week and the office is just dead, even if full of people.

Pros

None. Literally none. Amazing that I cannot think of a single thing. I’m staying because the job market is awful otherwise I am out of here.

Cons

- carousel of management. Changing every several months - constant reorganization, hired for a role you want then moved to a role without input as a part of a reorganization - employees of set up to fail - management is suspect in their talent and ability to build a culture worth having - trying to “scale” products without a client first mentality - profits over people - legacy remote work allows people to skate by without actually doing work - history of hiring suspect CEOs because of nepotism - people get paid obscene amounts for doing little work. And if they do work, it is so awful.
