Integral Ad Science reviews

IAS once had open communication by leadership, middle-management supporting team members, and great employee culture. This completely changed after IAS was purchased by private equity firm, Vista. The previous executive team was pushed out or left, and the current leadership team lacks understanding of the products and ins-and-outs of the business. The current CEO provides little more than soundbites in company-wide meetings, with little follow-through. Leadership has almost entirely shifted focus away from employees and clients to the bottom line. Many late nights scrambling to put out fires, and little meaningful recognition for non-sales teams. Hostility between teams that should be working towards the same goals. Overall highly toxic environment amplified by high turnover. Given the multiple rounds of "restructuring" and emphasis on bottom line, it seems like they are trying to squeeze every penny out before selling the company in the next couple years.

- Lack of company transparency - 50 percent of the company did not see themselves working at IAS, according to a company-wide survey - Terrible, disorganized C-level executives that cannot make informed, radical decisions for a rapidly growing company - Constant internal re-organizations. Don't be surprised if your title or day-to-day tasks are interrupted or become extremely vague - Does not value Inclusion and Diversity and nothing is being planned to help resolve this issue. - Not a lot of room for growth within the company - Great values on paper but actually poor at executing and practicing the said values
