If you want an opportunity to learn who you are, IDR is it. This job will, inevitably, reveal all your strengths and weaknesses as a person and force you to look at who you are, who you want to be, how you think, etc. This company will not only force them out but will force you to address them, to develop your strengths and build upon your weaknesses. Enjoyable? No way. Progressive? Absolutely. No one ever grew from staying comfortable; I mean, how tragically boring would that be. I refuse to be bored and/or boring. Our generation feeds off instant gratification, they want what they want when they want it and I am the first to say I am guilty of it. Unfortunately, there are people who come in here who only appreciate results without the efforts of hard work and when forced with challenges or tension, they bulk and blame others for their lack of maturity and/or inability to overcome their pride. This is unfortunate; because many of them have potential they are robbing themselves of through their inability to take accountability. IDR allows you to work hard towards something, to challenge yourself, and to envelop success that can be both materialized and inexplicit at the same time. Change and growth are linked together; your attitude towards change has a dramatic impact on your earning potential as well as your personal/professional growth. Change will create opportunities for breakthrough rather than breakdowns. If you want to become a professional, IDR will provide the environment....granted you have to take responsibility for own development too...hand holding ceased when you graduated from college – IDR can teach you how to walk and play with the big kids, but we will not walk for you. Rory Vaden, in Take the Stairs, says “successful people do the things non successful people don’t want to do. Not because they want to do them, but because they know that is what it takes to be successful”. Boom. I joined IDR because I didn’t want to be mediocre. I wanted to be forced out of my comfort zone. I wanted to learn from those who exuded excellence and be pushed by people who were admirable by means of the standards they hold themselves and those around them to. I wanted to be the best at anything and everything I threw myself at and, in order to be the best; you have to learn from it. I saw so many of my friends take jobs out of school that allowed them to fall below average. I graduated about a year ago, joining IDR right out of school…and those very same friends have been in 2, 3, maybe 4 jobs since we graduated, attributing their departures to “them”. I have a big picture perspective of what I want out of life. I encourage those who are starting their career to do the same, to truly think about how hard they want to push themselves and why. If you are pursuing a career in sales, you should know going in that results are measured by numbers…you either hit them or you don’t. If you don’t there are natural consequences. Somehow that concept has seemed to slip the minds of these “goal-oriented” individuals people claim to be. In sales, goals are meant to be hit, but will also be missed. What you attribute these failures and successes to and how you overcome them is the important part. I have found that those who don’t make it at IDR, do is because they attribute these to something external as opposed to looking at themselves…and when you’re surrounding by driven people who have expectations and standards, that kind of mindset just doesn’t fly. I think IDR’s constant demand for progression and innovation and its intolerance for stagnancy is a privilege not provided by most places of work – that is a pro you will find here

I have been working at IDR for over 4 years now and can personally testify on what a remarkable company this is. STARTING with the leadership. IDR's leadership is the reason I believe in this company - They are hands on and effective communicators that listen and only have your best interest in mind. Without their guidance, I wouldn't be nearly as successful as I am today. That goes for my direct leadership as well as our C-Suite Execs (Ashley Holahan & Will Hayes) - They're rockstars to work for. If your goal is to succeed, they will definitely push you where you need it and ensure that you achieve your utmost potential. The culture at IDR is full of very up-beat and ambitious individuals who all are eager to succeed. I truly cannot recommend a company more and have nothing but good things to say about it. As I mentioned, I have been with this company for over four years now - through the thick of the pandemic, all of the ups and downs, and still believe in this company just as much as I did when I first started.
