Pros

Free breakfast on Fridays Ability to interact with high level hiring managers Young and energetic office Some of the people you work with are genuinely good people Paid the bills while I found more career centric position

Cons

Highly unprofessional work environment with little to no diversity The amount of HR violations and straight up disrespectful things you hear on a daily basis in so damn high is insane All of the 5 star recruiter reviews are recruiters who recently started with the company are still caught up in the haze of a new job They expect you to work upwards of 10 hour days to hit your numbers on a salary that is straight up disrespectful to college graduates This is not what you got a bachelors degree for, it's all sorority and frat stars running the company The open office set up makes it hard to focus on getting real work done Constant micromanagement from every level of of the company, like having your boss question you about your work every other hour? Good you'll like it here. If you are competent and want career mobility, stay away from IG

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.
