An average company with a bad Rep in the industry

Pros

Interesting events, some interesting people. It's neither the horror stories you hear nor is it the more sycophantic reviews. It is really just average. As long as you know how to play office politics a bit and keep on your manager's good side it's alright.

Cons

It's your typical company downsides. Management is more interested in protecting how they are viewed by upper management than actually helping or developing you. Your best quickly becomes the expected, so don't burn yourself out in the beginning. Pay is weak because they focus on hiring new grads and due to managers not being that great the turnover is really high. Some firms in the industry have blacklisted IQPC due to its bad managerial reputation, so I would only recommend career climbing if you see a permanent future there. Essentially, a bit of a meat-packing plant but it has its charm.

Pros

- Great office envionrment and colleagues to work with. - The production team lead (company GM) is always looking out for her team - especially when you feel the workload becomes too much. - Great way to learn about the different industries and thier challenges. The IQPC research method forces you to hone your own analytical thinking and commercial skills. - managment encourages you to use AI to reduce your workload and suggest new ideas / think outside of the box

Cons

- Fast-paced environment - but that is what the events industry is about - Sometimes the different teams work too much in siloes (although management encourages you to collaborate with them)

Pros

Opportunities for career progression. Excellent training & coaching. Fun, supportive work environment. I currently work in the Commercial Production team at IQPC and have been fortunate to have a career spanning multiple roles and locations, including London (2006-2008) and Dubai (2008-2013), and back to London (2021-present). IQPC has always stood out to me as a company that genuinely invests in its employees. The training and development opportunities are exceptional, including formal programmes like the ITM and MDP courses, as well as informal coaching. Every employee creates an Individual Development Plan with their Manager, which is tailored to help you achieve your career goals, and the opportunities for progression are plentiful if you're willing to put in the effort. I've personally benefited from these programmes, as well as regular ongoing training and individual coaching, and have had the chance to work abroad and in diverse roles, which has been incredibly rewarding. The benefits package is also a standout feature. The Employee Assistance Programme and Medicash plan are excellent, providing real support when needed. IQPC also fosters an inclusive and collaborative culture with internal groups like Charity & Culture, Women in Business, Diversity & Inclusion, Menopause Awareness, and Neurodiversity Awareness. One of the things I value most is the supportive environment created by colleagues and leadership. The culture here is collaborative, and you’re surrounded by people who are committed to helping each other succeed. Overall, if you’re looking for a place that values personal and professional growth and offers the chance to work in a variety of roles and locations, IQPC is a fantastic choice.

Cons

None for me, but the industry does require high commitment. For me personally, there are no cons. However, it's worth noting that this industry is fast-paced and you'll often be juggling multiple projects at once, which can be challenging and isn’t for everyone. If you enjoy a high-energy environment that demands the best of you, you’ll excel here.
