Pros
iCIMS is a good place to work in my experience. The people I had the chance to work with were good people and many of them will become people who will be resources throughout your career. There is a nice work-life balance culture at the company it wouldn’t be uncommon for people to work from home multiple times per week if necessary. Management is considerate if you are upfront with any personal issues or life problems you may be having as you try to balance work and life. That can’t be said for many companies. Bell Works is a historic building and thus makes it a cool place to work. It has been harder as the firm as grown but the company tries to have company-wide events to keep alive that “family” type atmosphere.
Cons
No company is perfect, and iCIMS has recently doubled in size in the past 4 years or so. This will come with natural growing pains. Like with any technology company there is that fine balance of pushing the new products out the door and the quality of the product. In this era of aggressive growth, the pendulum has swung pretty far to the aggressive product strategy. With the quality of the core product degrading slowly. The culture has become a little too top-down, and a focus on metrics that validates what people want to believe versus what is the actual truth has settled in. Compensation is a little low compared to Philly/NYC for some positions. Some people need to have their egos checked at the door. Nothing wrong with building important products, and services for the customer and helping the economy but some act like they are curing life-threatening diseases.
