Pros

People at this company are nice, generally speaking. The majority of people at the company are very young.

Cons

Since executive management found out about negative reviews on here, they have HR & Marketing write positive ones to skew the rating in their favor. Easy to spot with sentences like “With food and ping pong tables, who wants to go home?!” I don’t care how much you love the company where you work, no one would actually write that in a genuine review. The repeated vernacular and excessive use of exclamation points in the positive reviews, pointing out things like benefits and compensation, clearly speak to someone that isn’t actually reviewing a specific position or what it’s like to work for this company. There is an overabundance of systems in place, which are extremely redundant, often causing double the workload and slowing things down. One of the biggest issues is the inconsistencies with company policies. Some are people are allowed to work from home, some are not. It’s at your manager’s discretion vs. a company policy. Compensation is okay for some positions and horrible for others. There is no standard pay scale for each position and varies based upon what they feel you’re worth.

Pros

There are smart people here.

Cons

I am a high performer, was brought over to help build out a new part of the business only to find out most of the leaders don’t even work on a regular basis. Most people buying their time until Insight finally drops the big axe. Just about every detail of my offer and how the job was explained is a complete lie. I keep hearing about the once great legend of SADA, but it no longer exists.
