Pros

I accepted this job because of the people I met during the interview process . They were exactly the kind of people I wanted to surround myself with everyday at work, and the kind of people I wanted to manage me as I was starting my career out of college. However, as much as I love the culture here and the opportunities I've gotten to be on yachts or tailgating at Viking/Packer football games, I've grown to appreciate more and more the opportunity they have laid out for retirement through a 401k plan and earning stock with every sales contest. The longer I've been here the more impressed I have become with Insight Global.

Cons

It's challenging! I told them during the interview that I'm competitive, I'm driven and I want to be number 1 in everything I do. I can absolutely see now that is the attitude you need to have if you want to be successful here... or in any sales role. The first year of sales will be the hardest, you'll put in a lot of work into it, but it's extremely rewarding. Make sure that is something you are prepared for!

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.
