Pros

Middle management always seem to care about their reports and support them when needed. Projects were interesting and provided opportunities to travel to interesting places. PTO was pretty flexible and accepted when needed. It was unlimited when I was there but I’ve heard that’s no longer.

Cons

Management will make you feel valued and then throw you under (or off) the bus when they screw up. Changes to sales processes and commissions have a waterfall effect on delivery positions requiring layoffs when there is no work. Annual raises are minimum and don’t even cover cost of living increases for more entry level positions (unsure about high positions but I’m sure they got hefty raises and bonuses); it’s always been this way. Bonuses are based on utilization which you have basically no control over. New hires out of college get paid more than employees with experience and years-long loyalty to the company but they don’t give it back. Things really started to change when the entire company was restructured a few years back. It went down hill from there. To this day I wonder if they regret making those decisions which led to millions of dollars in lost revenue and the departure/lay off of dozens of key and previously-loyal employees. Before I was laid off, there were notices of goals to have a workforce majority made up of employees from India (cheap labor). We all hoped that meant the majority of new hires would come from overseas but now see it just means we were getting replaced. When you go above and beyond, you rarely feel appreciated. I regret putting in years of dedication at Insight, passing up better opportunities, just to be let go when things got tough.

Pros

I can say that i really have a great manager. I'm on contract work, have been for 8 years. Our manager always lets us know how contracts are going. When the renewal talks are happening and when things get signed. You are kept in the loop. Its comforting and supportive. If a contract isn't renewed our manager is already on the hunt for a new opportunity for work. You feel the Heart and commitment to employees. Our work/life balance is great. Opportunities for training and skills are always available. The pay is good. Life is good.

Cons

I think my only con would be better options for insurance, but overall compared to other friends, our insurance is decent.

Pros

Work life balance is okay. Hybrid schedule. Depending on your manager they can work with you. Some really great and caring people. Generous PTO.

Cons

Pay is noncompetitive. The medical benefits are pretty bare minimum. Lastly, the company morale is in the tank overall. Missed several quarterly quotas, new CEO brought in to fix things. Nobody knows where anything is headed
