Pros

A great place for young graduates to begin and grow their careers (if they are patient). Company also has many employees that have been with ICON 5, 8, 10+ years. Great employee perks, seasonal parties/events and they are upgrading many systems to state of the art technologies. People leave with belief of greener grass and MANY return!

Cons

No summer hours & should have a different policy for inclement weather

Pros

ICON is a good company for those who are looking for their first job out of college, or those who are looking to do the same role day in and day out and are not looking for career advancement. ICON provides flexibility from long lunches to being able to being able to focus on your family. The work/life balance is good compared to other agencies In my time at ICON I met many great people. Those people did a fantastic job helping me get through my time at ICON, and were the main reason for the three-stars.

Cons

People from ICON at the bottom are great. People at the top of ICON..... not so much. Promotions at ICON are spit out about as randomly as numbers on a roulette wheel. Managers and group directors push for their employees success. The problem, moving a brick wall is next to impossible. A lot of good employees during my time walked out on ICON because of this. During the interview process, companies will ask you "where do you see yourself in five years". When you ask that question at ICON, you get the look that bambi just ran in front of your car, because the answer is undefined at ICON for many. ***Also turn the up heat a bit... Employees are wearing sweaters and blankets in the summer time!
