Pros

Decent place to start as a recent grad or to get your foot in the door with recruiting/sales on your resume in order to get a better job and move on to the next thing. that's about it

Cons

Wouldn't recommend taking the job if you have better options/offers or staying long at all. The pay and benefits are horrible and culture becomes very toxic after a while. They paint a glamorous picture but really just want to work you to death while acting like it's a sorority/fraternity. You get very little in return and the financial growth they promise you when you are hired will not come to fruition and comes at a high mental price with the sacrifice of work life balance. No job should be this stressful or cause this much mental trauma, especially one that is at a 35k salary.

Pros

Time management I guess? Not many pros at all

Cons

Where do I begin? This is the most toxic work environment I’ve ever experienced. I still have PTSD from what I went through here. They put an extreme amount of pressure on you to meet metrics, work life balance is nonexistent because they all only hang out with each other outside of work. They have no life outside of insight global, it’s sad really. It feels like a cult. Mandatory happy hours, extremely low pay as an R1, so much drama because they’re all under the age of 28. You are forced to cheer and be in a happy mood at all times, especially at 8 in the morning during zone when you’re just trying to wake up. They treat their candidates like filth and want to talk them down to the lowest penny they can, so they can maximize their commission. This whole company is a joke and a scam. Please do yourself a favor and go work for any other company. I’m embarrassed to tell anyone I ever worked here.

Pros

The office had a nice view.

Cons

I am a former employee. I worked for Insight global (San Diego) directly. I was not a contractor that was on Insight Global’s payroll. Most of the positive reviews you will see on here are from the contractors. This is mainly because they did not work for the company directly. Rather for clients of IG. If you are considering a job here. Don’t. Yes, it is a large company with a big office and excitement. This is how they pull young naive grads in. Do not be fooled. You are expected to not only work from 8am-5pm minimum. However, if you leave at 5 or show up right at 8am. You will be reprimanded. The turnover rate is insane! On average 1-2 people either getting fired or quitting weekly! The company targets new grads, squeezes everything out of them for 6 months(if you can make it that long) and then spits you out. Mainly because, you are exhausted and also start to realize how ridiculous the work environment is. The benefits are a complete joke. Again, it’s a place for people not ready to move on from college. I left after a year. If you currently work there and are thinking about leaving. Do it! Things will not get better, you will find something better!
