Pros

Nice benefits Lottery for covered parking

Cons

The employee engagement survey scores for marketing are fake. The scores are only going up because it's well known that if you write something negative about the team and they can pinpoint you wrote it, they'll give you a piece of paper to sign. This piece of paper kindly states that the marketing team is allowed to look for your replacement while you keep working. As soon as they find someone new, you'll be let go. Mega turnover in marketing. Five people resigned over a span of two weeks while I was there. People leaving without even having jobs lined up it's so bad. #bestteamever is a slogan you use when you're the worst team ever. If you have to say it, it’s not true. Stay away.

Feedback is something we take very seriously to help our individual leaders grow and to ensure we’re creating positive experiences for all Insight teams. Our Marketing team’s attrition has decreased year-over-year, and marketing teammates report in our most recent Net Promoter scores that they are very proud to work for Insight, with some of the highest engagement scores in the company at over 85%. We are very proud of the work our team has accomplished and how we have seen so many teammates develop and grow from the feedback process.

Pros

Decent healthcare, with an onsite doctor if you are close enough Reasonable PTO, plus extra mental health days, as well as sick time Have employee assistance program

Cons

Everything else. The infrastructure team is considered and treated as the black sheep. WE are not included in company-wide initiative or get togethers. (Yes, they have performative inclusion, but try being the only tech support in a room full of Sales) The salary is horrific. Entry level starts ok, but then they flood you with additional responsibilities outside of your pay grade and then never actually pay you what you are worth. How it happens—Starting at a lower position and then being promoted to a title that no longer exists, so you'll keep your old title and just get new and more responsibilities. Then, they cap your salary at the lower position's top, and you have no way to advocate because you aren't "really" in that title. Then they will slowly erode the entire client base by making idiotic client promises that cannot be filled without intensive work, which all goes to a different team, and yours is phased out. All while they are stating we have great job security. 5 Layoffs/RIFs/Silent Termination waves in 6 years Removal of whole teams that support infrastructure, with no replacement—for example, axing the ENTIRE Quality Control team and having no replacement force, just telling individual teams to figure it out.
