Pros

IQPC is the organisation where I have gained a strong foundation in sales and sales management. This is due to the regular training provided to constantly enhance our sales approach and processes. The skills and knowledge I have learned and developed from its Management Development Program gave me the confidence I need to be a team leader. As it is a fast paced industry and with the organisation growing rapidly during my time, career progression was quick with which the exposure and experience is priceless. In addition, with IQPC offices located globally, there are opportunities to be posted or offered a role in one of them. The vast array of conferences IQPC has to offer has also allowed me to gain a strong knowledge of the industries they represent.

Cons

Global senior management can be quite cut-throat and make sudden decisions. Conferences can be repetitive. There is high staff turnover.

Pros

Work hard, play hard, innovation, independence, creativity, training, development, career progression. All these I have experienced personally at IQPC . Has my career here been easy, not always but has it been worth it absolutely. I had to work hard, at time long hours and stress have been involved but I’ve been rewarded with loyalty and respect from senior management across many global offices There are few companies that will employ relatively inexperienced people and invest in giving them the tools to succeed. How do I know this is true, because I spend every day doing just that for IQPC. You could rebuke this by saying but you don’t do it for everyone, of course we don’t, show me a company that does.

Cons

The conference business is fast paced, target and performance driven and highly competitive - it's not for everyone and tends to incite a love, hate relationship. IQPC looks for people who thrive in that environment and yes because of the project nature of the work it’s impossible for the business to sustain continual poor performing individuals. Staff turnover is higher than many industries but for every dissatisfied employee I could show you an example of someone who left us equipped with the tools to accelerate their career in ways they simply could not have done without the training we provided. Or, someone who left, tried the greener grass and choose to come back.

Pros

- Dynamic business environment that centers around hot business topics and emerging trends and hobnobbing with pretty senior executives - Never boring or tedious - always exciting! - Very fast paced and deadline driven - a great place to be if you thrive on speed - They are always looking to promote good people - I was promoted after 8 months with them and I've seen many others take on bigger roles pretty quickly too. You get a chance at a manager role much faster here than you would in most other places - You get to work on projects from start to finish and to travel to your events and see them happen live

Cons

- The speed and deadlines can be overwhelming at times and is not for the faint of heart - This isn't necessarily a con but they don't sugar coat anything - you'll hear the truth about your work performance and constructive criticism can be hard to swallow
