Pros

Fun people, great location, nothing else

Cons

I wanted to love it so badly. The people seemed fun, they make you feel like you're part of an elite group (re: they only hire extremely attractive, outgoing people), it seemed like there was a lot of career advancement. But you're lied to from the get go. I didn't want to believe all of the negative reviews, but statistically, real reviews are shaped like a bell curve, and IG's has an overwhelming amount of positive reviews. But notice they're vague because management forces their vapid workforce to say something nice about the company to maintain an image. They only hire former Greek life/athletes who're insecure about locking down a decent job after college. So they offer $38k, take you out to lunch/happy hour, tell you you're going to make a lot of money, and it seems like a great deal. Wrong. You work 10-12 hour days, have to join their mob mentality, and have 0 work/life balance except for hanging out at happy hour with your co-workers. They told me you'd get promoted once you become an account manager 6 months in, but that rarely happens, even if you've been working for 1.5+ years. If you want to take yourself seriously, wait for a better job opportunity. There's more to life than extending your party days, getting paid a non-livable wage with poor benefits, and getting overworked.

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
