Pluspunten

They placed me within Microsoft as a contractor during a difficult econoomy. HR/benefits team is fairly responsive to benefits questions and does assist staff in getting benefits questions addressed.

Minpunten

It is the classic contractor 'body shop' (puts bodies in chairs and collects cut of clieny billable hours). OK Medical/Dental/Vision benefits; Sacrifice paid days off for higher hourly rate; Poor 401(k) match; Additional training to keep skills frresh/marketable is non-existent; Very little (no) communication with customer account representative; All communications are driven by the contractor up thru Account Rep/Insight Global ('IG') office...no communications or follow thru by IG office staff.

Pluspunten

- Great Training if you're a fresh grad or new to the industry. Does feel a bit redundant after a year or so. - High energy, fun people - Good office spaces - A chance to make a lot of money

Minpunten

- Low base pay. $40k/yr - You'll hear "If you stay you'll be successful" but in my experience it's "if you're successful you'll stay" and most people aren't. - This is location dependent but in my office (in a smaller territory) there seemed to be no interest in our services. 2-3 other Account Managers had ownership over the only large accounts and the rest of us had to fight for scraps. The way they handle account ownership is a gift and curse. - Heavyyyyy grind culture. I love working hard as the next guy but when I put out 300+ manual cold calls a day, week after week, with no success and my manager's only advice is to try harder, that'll wear you down. - Very high turnover. I made a friend group at training of 5 other people when I started. In less than 2 years 5/6 of us left (including me). Most office seem like revolving doors of employees - Kind of feels like they use young people as pawns. Get them to hustle for 1-2 years, hope that they get lucky and strike gold, and if they don't just tell them they need to be "Grittier." I watched incompetent people make absurd amounts of money and very talented people fail time and time again.
