Pros

getting paid once a week. THATS IT

Cons

where do I begin. I worked here for less than a month, I actually quit my second week to avoid driving my car into a wall. First off, they 'give you' a parking pass only to find out 4-5 weeks into employment that you are responsible for paying $100.00 a month to park there. The market the job as 8-5 HOWEVER you'll be working from 7AM. if you don't show up at 7, then you're being sent into meetings to 'coach you' on how to be successful. Don't be surprised if you hear someone say to 'talk like them'. The company itself is SO discriminatory, they don't hire older people, they won't like you if your teeth aren't perfect, or if you learn toward religion too much. They even go as far as to tell you what sex to hire for a position. They scam the candidates by offering them pennies for positions that could easily pay 100k plus, and try to offer 13/hr. They work you like a dog and get upset if you don't want to spend every moment of your free time with your coworkers. If you aren't brining in 'new leads' they essentially just ignore you until you quit or they let you go. They market the job as a sales job but you are LITERALLY COLD CALLING EVERY DAY ALL DAY NONSTOP LIKE A TELEMARKETER and if you don't get a certain number of people to answer the phone (how is this controllable?) then they say you can't leave the office on Friday until you've hit a number that they made up. They say you'll be making a minimum salary, however when you start all of a sudden you're 'hourly'. Theres a bunch of stuff they say in the interview and once you're in the door.. you're basically stuck and feeling trapped. The account managers are never around because they're pretending to be on meetings. When they are there, they play games all day long but get upset if the recruiters take a break. They tell you things to reel you in, when its a completely different story when you start working. they use racial slurs, and overall it is a very hostile work environment.

Pros

Lots of virtue signaling. Halloween was huge.

Cons

IG has one of the most toxic workplace cultures I've experienced. Poor leadership, cliquish behavior, constant office drama, frequent verbal abuse, and an excessively loud work environment create a culture where professionalism takes a back seat. Success often seems less dependent on performance than on whether you're part of the "in" crowd. If a favored leader or influential employee decides they don't like you, your contributions quickly become irrelevant. Even when concerns are documented, supported with evidence, and raised through the appropriate leadership channels, employees can find themselves facing retaliation rather than resolution. Although the company advertises a hybrid work model, there is significant pressure to be in the office nearly every day, with employees who don't conform experiencing negative consequences. The company publicly promotes values around inclusion, respect, and corporate responsibility, but my experience did not reflect those messages. The gap between the company's external branding and its internal culture was striking. My direct manager regularly yelled, cursed at me, and made insulting remarks. Sexist jokes and comments from leaders were not uncommon, and management failed to address this behavior despite being aware of it. Instead of investigating concerns or holding people accountable, retaliation appeared to be the preferred response. After many years in the workforce, this was the most unprofessional and dysfunctional organization I've encountered. Before accepting a position, I would strongly encourage prospective employees to read reviews from former employees across multiple platforms and consider recurring themes carefully.
