Pros

Great team of people in the most part, superb range of products and services help you win new customers. Fosters an entrepreneurial spirit from its employees. Has the potential to be a truly great business if it could tackle the bad points. Non pay benefits not bad.

Cons

In my experience, career advancement opportunities are very limited unless you are in with the senior management team, developmental training is almost non-existent. Pay scales are below market average, every other uk based reseller over the last 12 months is paying 20% more on basic and commission packages according to recruiters. Company won't renegotiate packages unless you resign. Middle management mostly process driven and base every decision on fairly simplistic metrics with little vision and zero intuition. Some organisational issues, policies and procedures for things like recruitment of new vendors are overly complicated, frustrating and cause lost opportunities.

We definitely agree that our teammates are the best in the business. We do regularly benchmark pay and benefits and aim to pay in the upper quartile. Our developmental training options are very comprehensive. Regarding the other concerns, we feel this is not the type of environment we have and would like to know specifics to better help the team. Please email us at glassdoorfeedback@insight.com. Thank you for the feedback.

Pros

Great co-workers who are very helpful. Opportunity to learn new technologies hands on.

Cons

Poor benefits, nearly non-existant 401k match - 2 percent with1 per cent service fee. Good managers don't last long if they give feedback to assignments - poor managers last forever if they don't dare to give feedback to superiors. If a Dept meets their quota, a horrible manager will be defended to the bitter end. Cronies thrive despite lack of talent. Highly talented people are overlooked if they don't play the game.

We are happy to hear you liked our benefits at Insight. Regarding workload, this does fluctuate and could be higher than other weeks. We encourage to talk to your manager and see what could be adjusted or what support you need. Thank you for the feedback.
