Pros
There were times when IE was a magical place to work. Even through Covid we worked in interesting projects and clients (once out of the worst of it) and the leaders made sure that the team felt connected and trusted. A lot was invested in my growth and development and my lead in CX through 2020 to 2022 really helped me to understand my skills, my strengths and to grow.
Cons
When IE is good it's so good. But when it's bad it really is bad. Since mid 2022 there were significant changes in leadership. I'm not sure what actually happened with the former CEO and COO but it appears they were forced out by the founder coming back into the business. Disappointing because they brought stability trust and consistency and the the founder and his new leaders (who appear to be driven by a desire to say yes to anything the founder says) seem to give little care for consistency, trust and a compelling strategy. There is a weird dynamic particularly from the CFO of control.
