Greed isn't a good, long-term strategy for growth - Anonymous employee Euromonitor Employee Review

Euromonitor is highly profitable but for years, the company's two owners have distributed most of those profits back to themselves rather than reinvest in the company and employees that made them rich in the first place. The CEO and CFO are monetarily incentivized to maximize profits. As a result, the company has prioritized fattening margins rather than figuring out how to grow. With cost-cutting and profits top of mind, Euromonitor never seemed to have any real strategy or vision. "Innovation" is powered less by market needs or bottom-up ideas and more by an unrelenting, top-down obsession with higher margins that ultimately benefit a few. Now the company is shrinking and has resorted to sacking people. The culture is suffering. It's a shame and a waste because the company has much potential. Meanwhile, the owners just keep getting richer. It's the unfortunate spirit of our times apparently.
