Pros

Competitive pay and interesting work

Cons

Management, employee loyalty-they have no loyalty to hard-working, loyal employees. They love nepotism. When they started they were amazing and customer and employee centered. They have become obsessed with money and have stooped to practices that they once publicly criticized other companies for practicing. Their moral compass has become very skewed.

Pros

The company is outstanding. The pay , benefits , and work life balance are above average. The culture is also very good.

Cons

The rates for this industry seem to be very high compared to the competition. It makes the job challenging . I also see a very limited opportunity for advancement and management. It seems all those positions go to the friends of the leaders of the sales channel. It’s a big click.

Pros

Igs offers a decent base pay for a sales job that bumps up from 30k to 35k after you continue to hit your weekly sales goal. The team I worked with were nice and the manager wasn't bad but you only see them once a week and don't do much interaction outside of the weekly meeting.

Cons

Where to begin... The company preaches all these values and how its a family atmosphere but you're never in office or around it because your outside 5 or 6 days a week selling a useless service. 12 sale a week minimum to pay your base and anything over that is commisoned a fixed amount. The ability to get sales all depends on your area and also how shady you're willing to get with customers. If you aren't hitting 20+ sales a week then the job doesn't pay all that much better than a typical D2d sales job but trust me plenty of other companies offer the same base with better commission and a better product. The job is all dependant on you getting bills from homeowners to sell them a fixed electric and gas rate. Sounds fine until you realize that we are raising people's rates almost double on gas and a few cents on electric with no added benefit to the customer. Stating with the utility is generally the best bet or going with another registered supplier who only raise the rates a few cents on both lines unlike igs. If you can find a customer being screwed by another supplier then generally you can save them money but it's still better to stay with the utility. All in all this wasn't the job for me and I've had d2d sales experience for way better companies that pay the same or better for a better product. If you take this job be prepared to get shady and leave out alot of info when closing the sale. I found myself outright lying or misrepresenting info so I could get the sale just to make a living. If you don't mind doing this and trying to have the company brainwash you into why they're the best and fixed rates are what the customer needs then take the job and you'll be successful. Another resource to check out is igs reviews from consumers. Some like the fixed rate and weren't screwed too bad but most are and they can't get out of it without an etf. Just check igs bbb rating that they preach is an A+ but the customer reviews are 2 outta 5 stars. I hope this review can help and give some insight for those looking into igs and sorry for the length. Best of luck to you if you take the opportunity with them but don't be suprised if after a few months you see everything I've said come true.
