Pros

I learned how to work really hard considering you have to be in the office no later than 7:30 am and are not allowed to leave until 5 pm, but only are paid for 8 hours.

Cons

Insight Global does not run a proper business. As a recruiter you must answer all of the phone calls on the first ring and figure out how to solve whatever problem the person that called in has. You must bring contractors in for interviews, even if you are not planning on hiring them so that you can meet your "numbers" for the week. Everyone is dating everyone. You get 10 days of PTO a year and not many holidays. You have to work the day after Christmas and the day after Thanksgiving. In order to be promoted, you do not have to be good at your job. All you have to do is suck up to upper management. You have to do your hair and wear makeup to the job even if you are not seeing any clients. You have to wear heels to the 8 am company meeting that only employees of Insight Global attend. If you are not attractive or you are old, you will not be hired. This company is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Pros

The individual contributors and the endless amounts of budget for campaigns tools and resources. A great place for marketing creatives looking to do just that, create.

Cons

Leadership served themselves, not their team. There's 0 structure with no marketing KPI measurement or revenue attribution to show the ROI. Everyone always seemed so busy but nothing was getting done to show the impact marketing had on the businesses bottom line. Not many wanted to do the work to build the department to any potential, half of marketing doesn't even work under marketing which promotes vast misalignment. Just resources begging to be used and a bleeding advertising budget. It has a ton of potential, but I watched the few who could have changed it all leave over the frustrations of leaders only concerned with their own self preservation.
