Pros

Good training, free lunch on Friday, free breakfast Monday, fancy new building, work/life balance, and great people. These don't make up for the cons. The sparkle and sheen of the building quickly wear off to reveal the rotten core of the company.

Cons

Don't expect to be in this job for more than a year, if you can make it that long. Turnover is comically high. Only work here if you are desperate for a stop-gap job. Management is inexperienced, uninspiring, totalitarian, lacking direction and over-emotional. At this company you are not hired to think for yourself but to puppet management's bad decisions. Constantly changing priorities and no high level planning mean projects are never completed. Management also refuse to be held accountable for any bad decisions that are actually made, instead choosing to crucify the next target. Other Glassdoor reviews implying that people who have left bad reviews are unintelligent or lesser people embody precisely what is wrong with the company. There can be no opinions other than the party line, and if you disagree prepare to work in an environment where your intelligence, capability and opinions are regularly devalued and insulted. Most people start at the company thinking that all of the stories and these reviews are blown out of proportion, that they are the one that can turn things around because they've dealt with unreasonable employers or difficult clients. As an employee you will see the will and optimism sucked out of these people as they realize that it is truly a systematic problem with management that will never change. Don't take a job here.

Thank you for your feedback. IQAir takes all constructive criticism very seriously and to heart. if you are truly so unhappy that you tell people not to take a job somewhere that you have worked for over a year, then I encourage you to follow your passion to a company, product and management team that are a better fit for you. In the meantime, please take the opportunity to speak to your supervisor, another team leader or human resources about your dissatisfaction. There has to be a better solution than being so miserable every day.

Pros

This place is great! You can tell it’s a European company because they know how to treat their employees! The office is spacious & clean with a huge cafeteria, outdoor eating area with a waterfall, gym & amazing coffee machines with all the accoutrements! Everything is clean & streamlined. Mgmt gives praise when praise is due. On Mondays they provide breakfast! Everyone is very nice & friendly. Oh yeah, they have a slide on the 2nd floor that goes down to the first! Fun! There is a lot of work & everyone is committed to doing their part.

Cons

I haven’t come across any cons yet!

Pros

Only Pro is the team is good to work with.

Cons

Leadership especially the CEO who has no idea how to manage people or a company. Extremely unprofessional, rude, not easy to work with and makes you feel like you are worthy. You never know what mood they are in and what you will get when you go in. The turnover in this company is so high, that if you make it past your 90 day period your unlucky. I would not be surprised that this company does not have plenty of wrongful termination cases pending.
