Wonderful Company
Pros
The people who work at Euromonitor are a joy to be around. Everyone is intellectually curious and there is a real sense of team. I have not worked here since 2013 but I made many friends through my 4 years here that I still regularly meet! The culture is relaxed - you will never be scared to lose your job, managers and senior management will always work with you and are very flexible. Great opportunities to move to management or other offices around the world. You have to be pro-active for these opportunities though - if you want it, go get it or it won't happen. Open door policy - everyone in the company is approachable with the exception of the owners! Nobody is too good or too important to speak with you and you really will be able to get to know everyone who works in the office. Nobody will ever ask you to stay late for any reason and you won't get an email from a manager after hours. You will honestly feel like your free time is your own and there are no expectations to work more than you are supposed to.
Cons
Sometimes territory for sales can be very unequal and targets are too rigid; based around an arbitrary number rather than a full evaluation of territory potential. Managers can be a little outdated in their approaches - what worked for them isn't necessarily how the industry/market works now. Flexible working doesn't really exist. You are expected to be in the office and working from home isn't really an option. In this sense it is a little out-dated for a strategic sales role. The pay is below average for similar sales roles in other companies and industries.
