Pros

nice structure with job advancement causal workplace - can wear jeans if you wanted, set your own hours lots of meetings with training powerpoints, free lunches, etc.

Cons

long long hours - working until 9/10 pm and coming in way earlier the next morning not enough training for new recruits senior management was poor at times - research teams in the office were often described as "seclusive"

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!
