Pros

Insight Global was my first job as a college graduate, and has made the transition for me into the "real world" as seemless as possible. While yes there may be the occassional rough day, being surrounded by like-minded and hard-working people make this job as great as it is. There is always an optimistic feeling surrounding every office, which is driven by how hard every employee works. Everyone from a first week recruiter in training to the corporate executive team gives 100% every day and it shows with Insight Global's success.

Cons

Starting out, the pay is not amazing, and the commission structure of 1% on placements does not do much, however as people get promoted, work hard, and bring in solid business, the paychecks and commission can skyrocket quickly. Also with a quota of certain numbers to hit every week, it can put a little extra stress on recruiters and account managers, sometimes requiring hours of overtime. If you have a resilient attitude and enjoy what you're doing, however, nothing deters you from reaching your goals.

Pros

If you like short term jobs and untruthful recruiters, go for it.

Cons

This company will lie to you about having a position when they don't. They will tell you 6 month to perm, it is a lie. The deal mostly with short term contracts. Recruiters are really just running a sweat shop and will string you along until the end.

Pros

- When you do a good job, they praise you - The management buys a lot of alcohol - You can expense a lot of things

Cons

- Low base salary - HORRIBLE hours, they say it's an "8-5" job but more like "7:15am-6:30pm" - You work with people right out of college meaning, very immature - Management dangle "the carrot" in front of you until you can't run any further, then you either quit or get fired and they hire another college graduate to do your job - They use and abuse you!
