Pros
Great colleagues, good clients and interesting projects, generous time off policy, including summer Fridays
Cons
The workplace culture can feel suffocating as many people have only worked at Ipsos and have no interest in innovation or creative thinking and are happy to continue to do things as they've always been done. Everything is ultimately driven by Paris, which isn't always conducive to the needs of the US market and leads to a lag in accomplishing things at times. The company seems to be continually restructuring, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty and unhappiness. The sense of teamwork and community that I've felt in other jobs was missing here with senior managers taking credit for other's work. I've also never encountered a workplace where people were continually being laid off like I experienced here.
