Pros

Genuinely cannot think of a single pro.

Cons

Interviewed here for a recruiter role a couple months ago. After 3 interviews, they had me go into the office and shadow employees and meet the team I'd be joining. At the end of the day, the manager brought me into the office and said she had to "address the elephant in the room" and asked me how I felt about the fact that I am "significantly older" than the other employees. As a 30 year old woman, I find this comment insane. This company was asking for 3 years minimum experience, offering only $24 an hour to commute in to the Boston office, and then turning around and saying that I was too old for the job. I have never felt so uncomfortable in my life and truly cannot believe the blatant age discrimination at play here. I was not offered the job because of my age and I am thankful for that, as I would NEVER want to work for this company or any that believed that this behavior is okay.

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.
