Pros

This used to be a really great company that actually cared about the people that worked for it. Back when the organization was at it's best, culture, people, and quality were the main drivers for why people wanted to work here. Unfortunately, that's all changed over the past couple of years.

Cons

- Within the past few years, all of management that actually drove the culture has been fired. - We went very quickly from a quality show to a transactional one - Leadership now drives the team to attend Gentlemen's Clubs with them as "Team Outings" which is extremely creepy and uncomfortable - If you don't attend these group activities, you're seen as not being a part of the team or an outsider - It's fairly common for members of the team to drink at lunch, and return to the office drunk.....which tends to drastically effect productivity if you're depending on them for production - Everyone focuses their time on looking like their working, but actually doing very little....it's become a political environment of finger pointing and diverting blame. - This feedback is specific to the IT group of the organization, which is again disappointing because it used to be a really great team.

Pros

Few and far between, frankly can't think of any...

Cons

As a former employee of The Intersect Group, I feel compelled to share my harrowing experience with this company. My time there was nothing short of a nightmare, characterized by abysmal leadership, incompetent management, and an overall toxic work environment. Let's start with the leadership—or lack thereof. From day one, it was evident that the higher-ups were completely out of touch with the needs of their employees. Decisions were made arbitrarily, with little consideration for the impact on the staff. There was a pervasive sense of disorganization and chaos that trickled down from the top, leaving everyone feeling lost and frustrated. Management was equally disappointing, if not worse. There was a glaring lack of training and support for new hires, leaving us to fend for ourselves in a sea of uncertainty. Instead of guidance and mentorship, we were met with unrealistic expectations and unattainable goals. Coming into work felt like walking into a warzone, where employees were routinely subjected to verbal abuse and harassment. I personally experienced being cussed out often by superiors who lacked even a small amount of professionalism or decency. If that wasn't enough, imagine the shock and disbelief when I learned that my most recent manager had been arrested. It was the final straw in a long line of disappointments, confirming my suspicions that The Intersect Group is a sinking ship with no hope of redemption. In conclusion, I would strongly advise against anyone considering employment with The Intersect Group. Unless you enjoy being treated like dirt, working in a constant state of fear and anxiety, and witnessing the implosion of a company from the inside out, steer clear of this disaster waiting to happen. Save yourself the trouble and find employment elsewhere—anywhere but here.

Pros

There is opportunity to make money as long as you put in the time and lots of energy. And be sure to party at every opportunity to be a team player. So lots of free food and alcohol. Has a number of strong connections to clients for the time being. That list is shrinking or at least being replaced with smaller less impactful and desirable clients.

Cons

Benefits are an issue as noted in other reviews. Expensive and no 401k match. Unlimited vacation isn't accurate. Actually there is no vacation plan and all vacation must be approved. No vacation is accrued because they don't want to pay out any when people leave. Which happens a lot. Turnover is a major issue with most high performers having moved on. The few remain high performers are figuring out their exit plan and how to navigate the overly restrictive non compete and just waiting for the right moment. Contractor benefits have been discarded such as training dollars or accrued vacation are no longer offered as the company is focusing on cash. The owners strategy of dollar up dollar down approach of trying to squeeze every last profit out of a deal is real where they will attempt to change the pay rate after you have accepted a rate and turned down other offers but haven't signed an actual contract. Same thing to their clients, changing the bill rate in order to keep the candidate. This company under previous leadership was people focused and the current new mgmt is solely focused on profits. This has turned into just another cliche staffing firm with no differentiators and aggressive sales tactics. Difficult to be successful with the low pay rate offered to contractors and high bill rate to clients. Intersect has turned greedy and lost their partner focus to both candidates and clients. Recruiting team has lost significant performers with strong networks and ability to execute.
