Pros

Pay packets are fixed and no variables New Recruits will get good learning in coming years Everything is same and it's not different from IMRB, TNS and Nielsen Life is amazing if your manager is good but the team lacks good managers

Cons

HR Policies sucks Learning is limited Trainings will be done but there will no projects on those subjects You will be a operational executive and will do lots of co-ordination Bosses will remember to screw you at time of appraisals and not round the year Fieldwork quality is pathetic You will be a responsible manager and not research manager If you have variable that will never get paid. Business margins are low and employee salaries are high.

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!
