Pros

Fun place to meet people as a first job out of college

Cons

Management is awful. Females were forced to wear high heels every day (I was sent home for not doing so). No development opportunities - you are a number, not a person. Pay is dismal, and not worth the hours you will be forced to work.

Pros

- you meet some cool people

Cons

- Huge turnover - Extremely low pay - long work hours - Catty people & drama - Extremely judgmental in the office - leadership totally contradicts themselves - WAY too much emphasis on partying & going out AND if you don't go out with the team you are judged for it - Promotion depends on popularity - Corporate procedures or extremely old school & there are SO many ways to staff more efficiently & effectively that they do not use

Pros

A local manager reached out to better understand circumstances that they might improve

Cons

Took 2 months to get me into position after I had been hired. Had to keep contacting them for next step & oftentimes multiple requests to get response. Had me running back & forth to get background check & other foundational efforts completed, as they didn’t know what the process actually entailed. This meant a number of unnecessary [lengthy] trips to various locations for nothing & unanticipated fees I had to pay myself that they did not reimburse. IG offered inaccurate info regarding position specifics - skills needed, etc. I visited w/ employer 1st day & saw it wasn’t good fit. Shared w/ employer (good company & staff) that I wouldn’t take the role. IG then bugged me to file for full day payment so they could bill the employer at a higher rate. This persisted & I had to insist they stop as I saw it as unethical to charge the employer for a literal meeting. IG not terribly different from the many realtor-esque recruitment entities these days. Very cliché presence of such piranha organizations. Serve as little more than an unpleasant parasite obstacle for industry & talent to necessarily negotiate. Pronounced air of entitlement among IG staff making swallowing the fact they steal 30% of your income over duration of contract even more difficult. Do little more than get in the way of any good process, bring donuts & take massive sums of your money. I’ve never written such a review. IG bugged me to write a positive review for them on Glassdoor before they even got me into new position. Literally asked me to write positive review & send to them for review before posting – & they didn’t even have me working, yet! This is ironically the main reason for my posting this. NOT a good experience.
