At least in CoE (Centre of Excellence) which primarily caters to the international research have the added advantage working from home. Client exposure is good, with a bit of learning. Really good for those who have inclination towards marketing and market research

Dislikes

At times the work like balance can be daunting. So is the pay structure. It’s below par the standard industry rates.

There are different teams and you think one team is better than the other because few can hide their toxicity better than others, but eventually everything is just the same. what I like is that among so many sharks, if you are naïve and don't understand politics you will learn the tricks from the best.

Dislikes

...iri, and not when you are a true professional and follow professional ethics. No work life balance, no good compensation. Everyone seems sad and depressed. The seniors are watching you at all times, they are constantly looking at you and watching your move. some seniors are waiting for you to make a mistake and making this a big issue to make you the escape goat for all of their faults and shortcomings. Please don't join even if you think the money is good, it is not because you end up paying hospital and therapy bills.

No doubt it is a big brand in market research industry and some of the company policies, benefits, pay structures are at par with industry.

Dislikes

The toxic work culture, perceived notion on new joinees, communication gap from the management, complicated system, complex peer mind sets, inducing late working hours, abusing employees on the floor, below the belt comments towards female employees.. The list is too long to put down. This is specific to kolkata.

The Work culture is flat and people are great - including the senior management. There is a lot of learning opportunities. Office Politics is not a big thing and people are really helpful.

Dislikes

The compensation is towards lower side even when there are a lot of projects.

Haha.. there is only one thing that kolkatans like about IMRB International research. All those poor souls who cannot move out of Kolkata..there is a company which would exploit them to death bed in Kolkata. They hire people on basis of whether he/she has any incentive to stay in KOLKATA

Dislikes

0 work life balance. No pay hike. Greedy senior management taking up all hikes from themselves.. people are divorced , paralysed, unmarried due to bad work life balance. management interference in personal life of employees. SPINELESS HR . liar CEO. And a full set of loosers who don't have a life outside office and cannot move out of Kolkata. No medical insurance. Pathetic canteen. 2-5 percent increment YOY for top performers. Your college juniors will earn twice as you in other companies in few years. Kolkata head is the greediest , meanest person you will ever meet. Indonesia cases husband and wife - both work in same office side by side.. it's like a family drama full of vamps and loosers
