Pros

Like all companies this one has some pros. Most of the pros are levers that management uses to make sure people are not upset about the other things. These include benefits like company trips, iphones, lunches, drinks.

Cons

Where management and IMC goes wrong is its hypocrisy. Management thesis is that people are generally not smart to figure out the line they are being sold. So they say one thing while their actions speak another. Eventually people find out and are not happy including this poster. The problem essentially is that IMC is a dutch company and they do not trust Americans even though Chicago is their largest office. Americans do not make up an significant management in Chicago and those that did are now gone. Amsterdam sends over troops of Dutch to keep the locals in check. Another thing wrong with this place is the utter lack of experience. Average work experience here is about 2 years. This means it is like a college and decision making is very sophomoric.
