Pros

Organization is unique in that they actually do what they claim - in terms of investing in the ongoing development of their employees and providing robust employee benefits (more than just insurance!)

Cons

People are not perfect, and neither is any company. But there are no glaring "cons" that I have observed.

Pros

Over the past two years, the company has greatly invested in its people and improved their benefits. I read over some of the other reviews and will admit I am confused as to what the individual is talking about when they say the benefits got worse. Last year during open enrollment, they added all kinds of new plans, enhanced the plans and made them better. They also decreased the amount employees pay for their families and kids and this year the company took on more costs even though the cost was supposed to go up. I have had a lot of opportunities to develop - from courses offered onsite through outside specialists or the opportunity to go and get a certificate. I find the management to be very supportive of my career development and have seen the HR team has grown as the investment in its people programs has as well.

Cons

All companies have their growing pains. The company has doubled in size over the past couple of years and has processes to develop and systems to enhance as a result. Nothing atypical.

Pros

IBTS invests in its employees. Career development and training are a priority. Work is rewarding and meaningful. Employees are passionate and dedicated. Excellence and dedication are encouraged rewarded. Executive leadership strives to inspire employees and participates in training sessions along with employees.

Cons

This is a large and growing company, and not everyone knows what's going on outside their division. Work is rewarding, but can be all-consuming at times.

Thank you for your review; at IBTS we definitely value investing in our employees' growth and are glad that you are able to take advantage of this benefit! We are also working to improve our internal communications so that each division feels more connected. With such rapid growth of the organization, this is certainly an area where we can place a greater focus on.
