Pros

Great group of people who really care about their jobs, providing good quality results to the clients, etc. Department I was in had incredible steady/regular communication from senior management (see cons). Group I was in was very relaxed in terms of 'work from home' type of environment, making us all more productive.

Cons

Inconsistency across departments. Some teams were well loved; others were hated and it was a 'fear' society for the workers there (similarly, workload imbalance was crazy for some groups versus others). Reviews should also include protected peer reviews (there are some managers/VP's there who really have no business overseeing people). Finally, inconsistency in letting some employees switch groups and even offer international opportunities and denying other (long term employees) a job change - causing them to have to look outside the company for advancement. (I'd have happily stayed if I could have.)

Pros

Plenty of opportunities and various locations

Cons

You work your tail off using gas, mileage, time, energy, tolls, and consistent but the authenticator who sit in the comfort of their home find any and everything wrong with the survey you fill out. Then, you don't get paid. Their portal that you are supposed to use while on location has connectivity issues or whatever reason they decide to blame it on. So far, I've lost $500.00 with this company. There are many other mystery shopping companies who don't try to cheat you out of money. If I had to guess, they use your pictures and get THEIR money but won't pay their contractors. I would suggest shopping for any other company besides Ipsos!
