IQPC reviews

There is no communication between departments and internal customer service is appalling! Everyone is overworked and underpaid. We are asked to come in early and stay late, there is no extra pay for this but if you don't then trust me, management will remember this! They have no idea what the difference between work and play is. The pay is rediculous compared with other conference companies and other sales roles. Low amount of paid holiday compaered with industry. Time off is frowned upon. Everyone is mircomanaged. It is like being at school. You must not be one minute late, if you are not on the phone for 1 minute you will be asked why. You must stand for the 1st 15 minutes of the day and the first 15 mins back from lunch. We play silly games in the morning to 'rev up' that does nothing to aid our work and is a waste of time. Silly incentives such as make me this amount of money and i will buy you a pint? These dont suffice for the amount of work you have to put in to get that free pint. The management are not experienced at it shows, a lot of blagging it seems to happen along the way. It seems new rules are put in place every day and someone is always leaving. If you make it past a year here you are awesome, most people do not make it past probation, and those who do leave anyway. They extend a lot of probations so they can fire you at any point for any reason. Commision is appaling. The company give you a million false promises at the interveiw stage and continue to lie to you throughout your time there.

Extremely high levels of micromanagement mean producers are given very little autonomy or trust. The work culture can feel condescending, with producers often treated more like students than professionals. There's a clear lack of investment in developing or innovating the conference portfolio—it's a churn-and-burn model focused on short-term output rather than long-term growth or quality. Creativity is stifled, strategic direction is minimal, and team morale suffers as a result. Turnover among producers is consistently high, which affects continuity and team cohesion. Overall, working here is more likely to stall your professional development than support it—think carefully before accepting a role if you're looking to grow your career.
