Watch everything you’ve built get torn down - Business Development ION Group Employee Review

Pros

Salary was reasonable for the industry

Cons

Management is non existent and two faced. No clear strategy, well, they will say there is one and talk the talk, but when it comes down to it the strategy is to take as much cash for as little development and client support as possible. Long term client contracts are forced in to provide recurring revenue to borrow against to acquire the next poor technology firm to be consumed and stripped. It’s depressing to have grown a company to such a good level with great client relationships and then watch it stripped and broken down so quickly by the ION machine. Don’t trust a word they say. Bonuses will disappear, so will you when margins in your area inevitably decrease below the hidden line management maintains as your clients leave.

Pros

Great view from the NYC office. Had a great team which is why I stayed so long (over 12 years).

Cons

No direction, no transparency, no communication from leadership, bonuses cut, and now mass layoffs.
