Pros

They give opportunity to people wanting to get their foot in the door at a corporate company and allow for growth (reimbursements). Day-to-day interactions with peers were pleasant and collaborative. There were meaningful opportunities to allow employees to build niche expertise and experience in the field. If you are local to one of their locations, they host some incredible social events and parties.

Cons

Performance expectations from leadership roles were never clearly defined on some projects/contracts. Guidance was often vague and not based on measurable criteria. Feedback was withheld until issues had already escalated, leaving little to no time to make improvements or defend what truly occurred. Transparency and consistency was lacking between all levels of management which caused confusion for those doing the work. Compensation is well below market value especially after you’ve been at the company for awhile.

Pros

i3 is a wonderful company. They have a great culture, amazing mission, and awesome people. Teams all work well together from my experience, and there is little to no friction or animosity between departments

Cons

My 1 drawback is that regardless of the companies growth or scaling, i3 seems reluctant to put on their "big boy pants". They insist on acting like a tech start up in many regards, maintaining lacks rules and accountability, resisting changes that impose even the slightest inconvenience, and formal policy and process that may impede innovative practices. The result is a company with little to no standardization, many preventable errors in processes, and messy products that reflect poorly on the company as a whole.
