Vantaggi

Mostly friendly and hardworking co-workers.

Svantaggi

This is a small company run by a CEO who is playing a very clever game with his business. The idea is: hire inexperienced workers, pay them well below national average salaries with meager benefits for technical jobs, and then produce publications for the lowest bidders in international academia. These employees are often given unreasonable expectations and expected to produce publications with often poorly presented manuscripts and materials (lowest bidder material), but because the company seems like a foot in the door for these young people, they put up with it. It's a vicious cycle. It's like an abusive relationship, or a vampire, feeding on you but keeping you alive. The CEO presents himself as a hands-off leader who can one month reward employees with commendations and a loosened leash for their performance, and then the next drive quantities of people to quit, or even in some instances, go on a haphazard firing spree.

IGI Global is an independent publisher based in Hershey, Pennsylvania. It is important to recognize that the publishing house is not a large conglomerate publisher based in a metropolitan area. The average salary range posted online for publishing positions generally is connected with major cities, where many publishers are traditionally based. IGI Global also is an equal opportunity employer welcoming new employees of all ages and experience levels, many yes, who are just starting out in their careers and many others who have made recent career changes. IGI Global carries a strong belief in people regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, religion, country of origin, etc. Speaking to quality and ethics, following an extensive application process, which included a careful evaluation of IGI Global’s peer review process, ethical standards, and quality control, the publishing house was accepted as a full member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
