Pros

Wouldn't be where I am today without starting here first

Cons

Insight Global simply put is not a real company. Everyone in leadership has only ever worked at one place... Insight Global. There is no real strategy around what kind of work you are doing. They will sell you on this being a "sales role" in the interview but the account manager role at IG is just a glorified recruiter. They put every possible roadblock in front of you to delay you making real money. The base salary to begin with is borderline poverty level money, it takes a year to get "promoted", and then once you are you have to make a certain amount in "spread" BEFORE you can make any commission.... it's truly hilarious! I have since worked for an incredible sales organization for almost 3 years now since leaving IG and I DREAM of running into Bert Bean so I can tell him how he's running a fake company.

Pros

Fast hiring process, responsive contacts, easy to follow process and documentation and the usual optional benefits for a contractual employee and they do have an option for 401k after a 3 months of employment.

Cons

None that I can think of. I have never missed a paycheck from them.

Pros

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Cons

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
