Ian Martin Group Reviews

Pros

If your looking to work for a company that cares and values you, this is the place to be. Ian Martin is moving in the direction of becoming "Teal" which is refreshing, empowering and brilliant. They are also a certified "B Corp" aiming to seek higher purpose, contribute to our communities and reduce our footprint.

Pros

They really do care about your home life as well. Having appointments that are family or health related are never an issue.
I have experienced a whole new level of independence, and it has given me the freedom to ensure my responsibilities are taken care of all while being respected.

Advice to Management

Watch out for the little guys, we're riding this wave of change

Pros

Great working environment, Freedom to make decisions on accounts, little micro management and oversight

Pros

The biggest pro is that this company actually walks the walk - things like a self-managed culture, the fact that your whole self is encouraged at work, and the fact that you have the freedom to determine your career path may sound like empty corporate businesspeak, but they truly mean it here. The company has a clear purpose and isn't afraid of experimenting with ways of doing things better.

Advice to Management

Keep listening, learning, and being open to a variety of perspectives and we'll continue to grow together!

Pros

I am lucky. Not only do I get to do what I love everyday, but I get to make a difference with being a member of Stewardship council. We are passionate about "breaking down barriers to employment" and promoting inclusive hiring for us and our clients.
We work in a environment where we can give and receive feedback, we are open for coaching by colleagues and upper management and our voices and opinions are heard when we discuss the future direction of this company.
We take 1 day/year, leave our offices and our responsibilities for that day and volunteer in our communities, we give back with time and can donate to our favourite charities which by the way Ian Martin will match our donation dollar for dollar.
I am proud of the organization I work for. I have never worked for a company that shares financials in such a transparent way.

Pros

Flexible, B corp, Moving toward self-management , self-assessment to match like, wants and needs.

Pros

Ian Martin Group has worked hard to create a unique offering in a recruitment market without much differentiation. Using the advice process and tools like Cloverpop have allowed more employees voices to be heard in decision making and consequently, there has been more collaboration and better decisions. The newly formed Givers Of Happiness team provides excellent internal resources to all employees. Management has also prioritized learning opportunities and a real partnership with our coworkers in Bangalore. At the Oakville office, you can bring your whole self to work. They're on the Top 50 Great Places to work survey for a reason.

Advice to Management

It's awesome to work at a place that treats its values as foundational. The balance of creating an excellent offering for customers and an engaging work culture is complementary. Keep it up!

Pros

-Good Organization
-Great Values
-Unique as in they try to be different then most agencies

Advice to Management

-Have a better review/raise process
-Have succession planning- no one wants to be a recruiter forever

Pros

The thing I like most about working here is that the company has a heart and a purpose. While there's always a focus on profit, this is combined with a desire to create a great workplace, develop individuals and have a positive impact on the world.

From a practical perspective, the compensation package is good, the benefits are decent and the management team is competent and generally open to input.

Advice to Management

It may be time to revamp the benefits program. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The recent increased focus on the visibility packs is good and should be continued.
