Pros

The pay is fair and you’ll have opportunity to learn big data technologies and move up the corporate latter. Office locations are excellent. Working remotely is friendly. You can even travel abroad and work remotely from a foreign office. Smart individuals work there. You’ll probably make a few new long term friends.

Cons

The leadership at the Vice President level is so beyond awful that it trickles down to all teams. They make bad decision like putting lazy people who EVERYONE complained about into manager positions, then make excuses for that choice (e.g. didn’t hear enough complaints or didn’t know how good other employees were yet, etc)! Unbelievable! Different teams refuse to cooperate. It is strange but true. Who is the leader in charge of a project, the ultimate decision maker? No one knows. The team I was on again had someone EVERYONE complained about and he is now the only local person left on the team. He is by far the worst member of the team and should have been fired during the initial probationary period. But that is comScore, good get fed up and leave and the stupid get to eat up salary until the next layoff. The management, lack of processes and automation, and cross team dysfunction have led to a scenario where if you work 10 hours or 1000 hours you get the same amount of work done. The problems are severe, the worst I have ever or probably will ever see in terms of productivity. Getting things done is insanely difficult at comScore.

Pros

1. So-called un-limited time-off but never taken into consideration it all depends on how badly they need you, so if you are in a position critical then you have some good time off. 2. They "MIGHT" help you when you need emotional support, but this is not permanent changes with policy. 3. Summer hours availability.

Cons

1. Doesn't match industry level compensation. 2. Communication from the higher ups are always confusing and no clear goals provided. If there is something wrong with the communication between the higher ups you are always responsible even for that. 3. No stock options as they want the flexibility to fire you at anytime. 4. No severance provided until they know you can sue them back. 5. Look out for their quarterly meetings, if they are not doing good in Revenue, then expect layoffs within next few weeks. 6. They always tend to put the blame on lower level employees, when there is a escalation even when its not your fault. Prepare for getting fired if you are especially under a senior who has been with comscore for long + your team have good resource bandwidth.
