Just one thing. People are approachable, be it the CEO or anyone else. However, there is a big downside to it, you may be wrongly perceived and you can expect things turning out against you so make sure to record every conversation and keep everything documented. There are some good people such as MR. WAHID KHAN and AKASH MHASKAR, who are very knowledgeable and will make you learn new things at work. You would always want to work with such people....Read More
A long list of multiple things. To start with - A so-called principal analyst and a principal consultant who like to be called managers but can't manage a single thing (I don't want to name them). These two people are highly unprofessional, nearly unskilled, reluctant in taking any responsibility, highly politicising the work environment, no ownership in someone's professional growth and development, highly biased, completely promote favoritism and can throw you under the bus anytime. PLEASE BEWARE OF THESE TWO PEOPLE WHEN JOINING THE COMPANY AS THEY MAY BE THE ONLY BIGGEST REASON FOR YOU EXITING THE COMPANY. ALSO, THEY CAN OUTRIGHTLY LIE IN YOUR FACE ABOUT THINGS LIKE ATTENDANCE, SO ENSURE RECORDING EVERY CONVERSATION AND DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. SHE (THE PRINCIPAL ANALYST) WILL MICROMANAGE YOUR WORK AND WILL CREATE UNNECESSARY PRESSURE TO FINISH THE WORK DESPITE THE DELIVERY DEADLINE BEING WAY AHEAD. THE TWO WILL PUT YOU IN DEEPSHIT AND WILL ONLY CARE ABOUT THEIR OWN TARGETS. Fuss about small things like work from home. No discussions on your work performance and improvement areas and you will keep imagining about how your are performing. You will be lied to on many things like the benefits of the company, your professional growth, the work, etc. No trainings will be given and you will be expected to perform from day one even if your experience doesn't align with the work you are doing or you are a fresher, which also ends up delivering a quality compromised work. You will be encouraged to fabricate the data, use ChatGPT to write the reports and copy paste the write-up. No appreciation for good work. You will be expected to be a YES-MAN FOR HER despite things going wrong, but you can't oppose her as you will end up hurting her little ego. Low salary, almost no benefits. Your variable is just for name-sake. You can forget about it. Unnecessary and irrelevant salary deductions. And the list goes on.......I hope the higher management takes this seriously and save the company from bankruptcy....Read More

Currently nothing. Nothing even in the recent past. However, there was a certain time before and during the first year of the pandemic that there was a really good quality of work being done. Also, the company ensured that no one lost their job during the pandemic by restructuring (read: reducing) salaries for a majority of the employees - resulting in some of them leaving. Difficult to assess if that justifies for the years of under-payment (with respect to the multiple-profile KRAs fulfilled) for those who actually remained....Read More
I've been with this company for a considerable amount of time and apart from the initial inspiring environment (which was due to the kind of people that were there), every single thing has been pathetically disappointing. 1. Promotions are carried out so that the blame game can be directed at someone. Right from the top of the heirarchy to the bottom, every single individual searches for people to blame. Mind you, the blame only comes when a client writes something back. Otherwise, it's self-explanatory how work is carried out here. 2. Researchers have absolutely zero knowledge of a particular subject. The focus here is particularly on the top of the heirarchy. There is a certain principal consultant within the team, whose only response to complicated questions is "the data has been constructed with high confidence interval of 95%", whereas there's not even 5% accuracy to the information being provided. 3. Internal management is probably the worst across the industry. I'm yet to come across anything worse, however, from what I gather, it's the worst, and going downhill still. You would wonder if there was a threshold here. But there are new thresholds being established on a daily basis. 4. Recycling is good for the environment. Amazing too. Not for research. And this has been the practice since almost forever. Only in about 2019-2020, there were some really awesome projects, new topics, new research opportunities, etc. Of course before that everything was new since it was the first time. But this phase was truly amazing with the kind of titles being published. However, since then, it's only been recycling. The same projects are either being extrapolated for a year or two under the forecast periods, or volumes are being added (which have zero basis when you are already starting from a value perspective), or 'emerging' sections are being added. 5. The management changes every year with the promotions-everybody gets it no matter how incapable you may be. You would think that the roles might be changing as well-but that's where you're wrong. Let's say you're being promoted from the absolute junior level up to a senior analyst, your KRAs just add-on. They don't decrease. Here again, if you have people associated with you, the blame game trumps everything. 6. The appraisals are great. So great that they are invariably going to come with a bond. Since a bond is illegal in India, it's termed as a 'service agreement' in return for training. What training?! A few of the trainers will literally call out during the training that "Weren't you there during the last session? It will be the same thing. You may leave." So people are supposed to get everything at once, because even if you're taking the same training, the same trainees cannot attend. Coming back to the appraisal-so yes, the strategy is weird from the HRs. During appraisals, they will evaluate you across a bell curve, that evaluates every single employee at the same level. Of course 68% of the employees would be in the same place, statistically, but the appraisals are not statistically correct. You can't have every single person from different profiles placed in the same bracket. A 30% appraisal for an associate would be about 1.2L while the same for a principal analyst would be 3.6L. If only they understood the math. 7. There is nothing called goodwill here. The moment you resign, you're a traitor. And God forbid if you were a good one. They will drain every single iota of breath from you during the 2-3 month notice period. You will see yourself completing 3-4 reports in that period, irrespective of the quality you provide. 8. Production is paramount. Not a single thing else. You cannot take leaves, because if you do 'Production hil jayega'. That's the exact statement one certain principal states. Even when you're on your leaves, they'll call you up, because there's a certain client query that cannot be handled by the upper team management as well. 9. Quality, or the lack thereof is a matter of significant concern. There was quality up to a certain point of time (read: 2019-2020). Since then, it's downhill again without a threshold. Recycling the same analysis, the same everything with just a few tweaks by dragging the market numbers upto a year or two. Yes, dragging. Quite literally. 10. The upper management, while busy establishing sales offices in US, now London, are throwing out dreams of researchers going there for onsite projects. First of all, onsite projects are only there for client's internal business requirements, where you devise strategies for them. Onsite for market research is a farce, and it will continue to be so. 11. It is unfortunate that the upper management is unable to see what is going on in the company, or if they are turning a blind eye intentionally, because it's easier the other way round. There are certain people who are rotting the whole thing from within, and if it isn't visible yet, it probably never will. These people have been responsible for driving out some of the best employees the company has ever had. 12. They also have the habit of messing up the tax calculation for a large number of people who left the company during the respective financial year. It is probably the last way for them to get back at you for leaving the company by removing some of your tax declarations, thereby making you liable for a heavy tax due. This too is apart from the money they take from you under the guise of terminating a service agreement. 13. Some of the current employees (or probably most from a particular vertical) have consistently been reaching out to employees who have left the organization, because they cannot trust the current people in charge. This kind of sums up the situation right now. One more thing. When the company asks its senior employees to post fake reviews, that too by people who don't know how to use the platform and write "Likes everything as of now" and "Dislikes nothing as of now", it is clearly visible where this is going. Two good (fake) ratings won't balance the amount of outpour ex-employees have posted. There's a lot more to write, but if this is not constructively taken, there's really no point in writing more. Leaving it here, for the company to ponder upon, and try to fix things if they can....Read More

Only thing is that they offered work from home other than you are better off still idle rather than
The culture is shit these guys would treat you like they own you The management only relies on the managers which don't even know how to do market estimation their only check is that the market should be online with other managers Specifically a manager named SWATI SOOD she will treat you like she owns you knows absolutely nothing and the only check she introduced is spellcheck ( she can't even do that properly) although they do have an editorial The work ethics of the firm are at best questionable...Read More

Everything as of now. They appreciate sincere and hard-working employees.
Every organization has its pros and cons. If we just look at the negative part we won't be able to explore or understand the positive aspect.

You will learn a lot during your time here. Everything is done with atmost detail so I think the work you do here is of really good quality, and you will definitively have more knowledge then any of the other companies in the market research field.
So, about the dislikes… Honestly the work culture here is not at all good. They don’t value their employees and there is no sense of job security. Everyone plays blame games and no constructive feedback is given on your performance. Additionally, the workload and expectations are unreasonably high, leading to a pervasive sense of burnout among the employees. Overtime is not just encouraged but expected, which take a high toll on work life balance. Moreover, the management style is really bad, with very little regard to the concerns of the employees....Read More

Clueless Management not sure of where the company is going or supposed to go. COO deducts the salary as per his whims and fancies. Salary is not certain can get delayed very now and then sometimes with pay cuts. Variable payouts are canceled without any intimation. Company hasn’t paid the variable / PLI for over 24 months now. Learning curve is pretty flat. Very few people whom you can learn anything from. Research is done through ChatGPT...Read More

Nothing to like in the company, company is producing reports with the help of ChatGPT. Fooling clients. I don't think this company will survive for more than 6 months.

They don't produce reports at quick turn around time. Analysts are given time to write reports.l
They expect lot from resources at lesser pay.
