Literally the worst experience of my entire life. They hire a bunch of "professionals" that are straight out of college. When I was interviewing for the position they didn't even glance at my resume or ask me anything about my intellect, mostly just what you do for fun/ if your hobbies include happy hours and booze. During the whole process, they describe what the account managers do on a day to day basis, not what recruiters do. They make it seem like you'll be training to become an account manager, then you will become an AM in the first 6-8 months. You show up at 7-7:30 am every morning in business professional attire, even though you sit in an office all day. Girls are told how their makeup and clothes should look and heels must be worn at all times. Guys must wear a suit and tie. During the long day you are expected to conduct as many "interviews" over the phone. Which really consist of cold calling these innocent people and promising a job you know they will never get. It is all about hitting numbers and a popularity/beauty contest. While working here, I was more ridiculed by my outfits and hair, than my actual performance. They berate you down and make you feel like you know nothing. It is a high stress environment that is not professional in the least bit, which is what you get when not a single person above 30 works at this company. The weeks are long, I worked on average 60 hours a week, with very little pay. All in all, it was an awful experience, it gave me stress and anxiety that was not necessary. The turnover rate is very high (most last less than a year) and they want recruiters to post fake positive reviews on glassdoor to make it seem like an "Awesome" place to work. Seriously, avoid at all costs. You learn nothing useful for future career opportunities.

Lots of virtue signaling. Halloween was huge.

Inconvénients

IG has one of the most toxic workplace cultures I've experienced. Poor leadership, cliquish behavior, constant office drama, frequent verbal abuse, and an excessively loud work environment create a culture where professionalism takes a back seat. Success often seems less dependent on performance than on whether you're part of the "in" crowd. If a favored leader or influential employee decides they don't like you, your contributions quickly become irrelevant. Even when concerns are documented, supported with evidence, and raised through the appropriate leadership channels, employees can find themselves facing retaliation rather than resolution. Although the company advertises a hybrid work model, there is significant pressure to be in the office nearly every day, with employees who don't conform experiencing negative consequences. The company publicly promotes values around inclusion, respect, and corporate responsibility, but my experience did not reflect those messages. The gap between the company's external branding and its internal culture was striking. My direct manager regularly yelled, cursed at me, and made insulting remarks. Sexist jokes and comments from leaders were not uncommon, and management failed to address this behavior despite being aware of it. Instead of investigating concerns or holding people accountable, retaliation appeared to be the preferred response. After many years in the workforce, this was the most unprofessional and dysfunctional organization I've encountered. Before accepting a position, I would strongly encourage prospective employees to read reviews from former employees across multiple platforms and consider recurring themes carefully.
