Pros

Got to meet and work for a large and diversified group of clients Got to see and learn the ins and outs of market research projects Great Benefits Steady growth in pay

Cons

hard deadlines in the research field require lots of last minute staff manipulation and constant contact with staff supervisors and clients to adjust resources and/ or quotas expectations in the data collection centers can be truly unrealistic and stressful when your not getting the expected responses in field work very low margin work for the company resulted in the entire market research division being downsized in 2008

Pros

In our department (Market Research), we don't have to betray our morals or even be conniving, as employees in marketing call centers are often encouraged to do. The atmosphere is more relaxed than other call center environments, and the work is not particularly hard, though it does require a certain temperament. The local management is pleasant to work with, and understanding of personal issues when necessary. In the long term, there are MANY opportunities to move upwards within the company; short term, there are hours available for any employee who chooses to do so; some employees work 60+ hours a week by choice.

Cons

I sometimes get the feeling our center is something of a "red-headed stepchild." Our requests for supplies and equipment often fall on deaf ears, as do our communiques with our HR department; this often means that entry-level employees are able to get away with a great deal more misbehavior than they should be able to, while our local management is largely powerless to chastise them. Since ICT Group policy states that any suspension must be paid, we are unable to even send employees home for non-production. Plus, since the System Administrator for our center left for greener pastures, we are unable to replace production-floor PCs that break (and we're talking about 8-year old PCs that tend to die frequently).
