Vantaggi

Some of the people there became my lifelong friends, however it is very cliquey and you would definitely struggle if you were an outsider. They will hire people who don't have degrees but good CX experience so a god place to start in the professional world at least.

Svantaggi

First major con and red flag is that all the 5 star reviews are fake and heavily pushed by HR, they will ask if you left a review nd check. Second is the cliquey-ness of the office, lots of shady backstabbing from all levels of management. Upper management were terrible to certain divisions and increased stress by providing ridiculous punishments', such as banning certain venues for lunch or morning revs. You're expected to work 8.30-5.30 (some divisions even earlier 8-7pm) and only break for an hour at lunch which felt like I was on a timer and shamed if it was late. Absolutely no work life balance. MD was a micromanager and would intimidate teams by watching everyone work. Lots of people got unfair promotions/job upgrades without the opportunity being open for everyone. They have a massive turnover of staff, even worse post-pandemic. <40k wage which does not outweigh any of the cons or efforts you have to put into this job.

Vantaggi

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!

Svantaggi

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.

Vantaggi

people were nice enough to work with

Svantaggi

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.
