Kantar Area Marketing Executive salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

Salary is the best out of the top 3 big companies in market research and that is the only positive aspect. It still feels low when compared to the amount of work done or hours spent on completing day-to-day tasks.

Dislikes

...s absolutely no work-life balance as the teams are severely understaffed always. Have to work extra hours almost every day without any extra pay. Also have to work on weekends/ holidays, etc. There is no comp off or additional pay for this as well. There is no log off time in particular but we are expected to login on time in the morning.

Work culture and job security is the best thing at Kantar. Sports event like leather ball cricket, chess, carrom, badminton, football, walkathon etc. If you are a sport lover or health freak then this is for you.

Dislikes

Skill development and salary is something you will have to compromise if you want to be here. But if you are looking for long term stay in a single company it is the best.
