Good and Bad

Pros

Working dowtown is fun and exciting. Building at 1900 Market is beautiful and offers a great gym and cafeteria. For the most part the middle management tries to maintain work-life balance for associates. I have a really great boss.

Cons

Upper management seems very disconnected. When I was converted from contractor to permanent I was forced to take a 1$4K per year pay cut. When I explained that I didn't think I could live off of $1,300 per month pay cut after taxes I was told that was my market value. I made the same amount in my first job 6 years prior. As an individual customer I paid less premuims than I do as an Associate with the same exact plan (IBC Personal Choice). IBC was recently not named as a top 25 place to work in Philadelphia per philly.com. Others may have had a positive experience but I have not. Certain departments have hands in every other departments projects and continually bottle neck or rail road projects.

Pros

The location and the fact that the customer service reps really care about the customers.

Cons

middle management is awful, no one wants to actually get any work accomplished. I'm so happy I don't actually work for this company I don't know what to do with myself. I thought this company was the cream of the crop. I was very wrong.
