Pros

When I first joined IQPC I did not know what to expect, however, as I have grown my career here I couldn't love this office more. The opportunities for growth are tremendous and the financial payouts for me every month show it. This office is "fast paced" and it is a value based sell which turns you into an "executive and consultant" versus a door to door salesman. When you are selling here, you are essentially running your own business with the security of a paycheck. You manage your campaign from start to finish while getting to work with some of the most prominent executives in the world. People that do well here typically are outgoing, intelligent, have a good understanding of the commercial world, and are looking for growth and eager to learn. You have to work with Excel and Microsoft often, and if you are not organized you may lose opportunities because there is a lot to do! but you will never be bored......... Good work-life balance, everyone here has good morals and home values. Get to travel to 5-star resorts all around the nation once every few months.

Cons

Can be very challenging for those with customer service backgrounds or who have traditionally feature pitched in previous sales positions. You get leads given to you from the marketing team as well as from sales support reps, but lead generation takes some time to understand. Once the first few weeks of "ramp up" and training are finished, you should be able to hit the ground running. Not an environment where you will be micromanaged so it is not for those that need constant "babying", you will receive plenty of guidance and help but you are expected to speak up if you don't understand something or management will assume you are onto the next step! can be challenging for those with customer service backgrounds.

Pros

Title: Great company to work for with an agile and talented team Pros: Working as a Portfolio Manager at IQPC was a great experience. The company is incredibly agile and has a strong ability to adapt to market changes, which is vital in the highly competitive events and conferences industry. This adaptability allows IQPC to stay ahead of trends and continue delivering relevant and high-quality events. The people here are some of the smartest and most capable I’ve had the pleasure of working with — it’s clear that IQPC attracts top talent and fosters a collaborative, supportive environment. One of the standout aspects of the company is how much they invest in their rising talent. There are continuous opportunities for development, and the performance-based pay structure is a great motivator. It not only rewards individual contributions but also drives the company’s success as a whole. This culture of incentivizing high performance was one of the key factors in my own personal and professional growth while there. Overall: IQPC is a solid company with a lot of potential for growth. The leadership is forward-thinking, the people are sharp, and the culture rewards results. While the sales team dynamic might not be perfect, it’s a small downside in an otherwise great work environment. Would recommend to anyone who thrives in a fast-paced, results-oriented setting!

Cons

Cons: Like many fast-paced companies, there is a bit of ego on the sales team. While this is somewhat expected in a high-energy, results-driven environment, it can occasionally cause friction between departments. However, this is something that can be managed with effective communication and collaboration. For junior staff it can be a challenging environment to meet deadlines.

Pros

people were nice enough to work with

Cons

I worked for SSON, our managing director liked to preach that they advocated for their employees, but I was let go, through no fault of my own per their words, after bad training and no real support for the new role I was taking on. Also, there is zero work/life balance despite being able to work from home 2 days a week, my team was exhausted and upper management did not care.
