Pros

Breakfast provided on Friday mornings

Cons

I worked at Insight a global for 7 months and it was not the position I signed up for. When they initially recruit you, they sell you on the account manager role. They tell you you’ll be building relationships with clients and getting a lot of time out and about. What they don’t tell you is that you enter as a recruiter. You job is to make as many phone calls a day to people who don’t want to talk to you. All of your calls are monitored and you have to turn in your call sheets and other required documentation at the end of every day. You will be judged on how you look and how many friends you make in the office. I have seen girls not get promoted solely based off of their physical appearance. I would not recommend working here. There are plenty of other staffing agencies to work at where they will pay you a lot more and treat you like a human being. At Insight Global, the base salary is ridiculously low (30K in Houston). You will only have 8 days of PTO a year and the benefits are dismal and expensive. Please explore other options if you are thinking about working here.

Pros

Can make good money, your coworkers are great

Cons

- work 7:45-5pm every day and will be questioned if you leave early - "hybrid" is onsite mon-fri with no flexibility - management is absolutely insane in every way - zero diversity, only hire blonde women in their 20s - base salary is laughable and you will be making that for at least a year if not more - management will play favorites and that has a direct impact your paycheck - constant work drama - no rewards for hard workers - benefits are a JOKE - 401k match is $250/year, health insurance is terrible, and zero perks of the job
