Pros

The brand is well known and opens doors. Many of the people are great.

Cons

Not the place for a professional market researcher. Senior management is plain incompetent. Read the reviews below and you will be struck how often Senior Management is mentioned. Editor: Note that Finbar O'Neill is now President. Frank Forkin is not now, and never was, President or CEO.

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunity to work with some cutting edge ideas

Cons

Management is terrible; most co-workers are extremely back-stabbing; physical work conditions are antiquated; never get to use your time off, but you loose it if you dont use it. Terrible place! I would recommend working with or for JDPA.
