Pros

Insight Global does a great job of searching job boards to find qualified candidates and initiating contact to discuss their open positions. I had the pleasure of working with two excellent recruiters, Alanna and Molly. In addition to being professional, organized, and responsive, they were also kind and engaging. They had an intimate knowledge of their client company's business and were able to explain the position to me in great detail. Within one week of our introductory discussion, Alanna and Molly scheduled a phone interview, communicated feedback, scheduled in-person interviews, and finalized the offer with an excellent company. They were amazing!!!

Cons

Insight Global seems to put a lot of focus on asking potential candidates for references before they have presented the candidates to the hiring company. It would be nice if they change this policy and allow their recruiters to defer the reference requests until after an offer has been extended.

Pros

Lots of virtue signaling. Halloween was huge.

Cons

IG has one of the most toxic workplace cultures I've experienced. Poor leadership, cliquish behavior, constant office drama, frequent verbal abuse, and an excessively loud work environment create a culture where professionalism takes a back seat. Success often seems less dependent on performance than on whether you're part of the "in" crowd. If a favored leader or influential employee decides they don't like you, your contributions quickly become irrelevant. Even when concerns are documented, supported with evidence, and raised through the appropriate leadership channels, employees can find themselves facing retaliation rather than resolution. Although the company advertises a hybrid work model, there is significant pressure to be in the office nearly every day, with employees who don't conform experiencing negative consequences. The company publicly promotes values around inclusion, respect, and corporate responsibility, but my experience did not reflect those messages. The gap between the company's external branding and its internal culture was striking. My direct manager regularly yelled, cursed at me, and made insulting remarks. Sexist jokes and comments from leaders were not uncommon, and management failed to address this behavior despite being aware of it. Instead of investigating concerns or holding people accountable, retaliation appeared to be the preferred response. After many years in the workforce, this was the most unprofessional and dysfunctional organization I've encountered. Before accepting a position, I would strongly encourage prospective employees to read reviews from former employees across multiple platforms and consider recurring themes carefully.
