Pros

There are some lovely people who work for GfK. Teams such as UX & Boutique create some great products and output.

Cons

GfK is in crisis. Turnover is insanely high, because good people are recruited, but as soon as they challenge certain members of the Exec, they are blacklisted and their card is marked. You will only advance at GfK if you are a “yes man” / “yes woman”, but what kind of life is that? Your opinion / ideas will only be taken seriously if you are of a more senior grade than the colleague you are providing an opinion to. Ridiculous!

Pros

The people you work with are great.

Cons

Started as a 6-day work week. Ended as a 60-hour work week. Zero time for your own life. Management expected you to work to live. Not live to work. Too much workload for one person to equal a 40 hour work week.
