Insight Global

I have worked at Insight Global for the past three years. I took this job right out of college after hearing great reviews from a few older friends that were currently working there and had already become successful. Prior to starting Insight Global, I had completed two internships at the headquarters of a major broadcasting company in Atlanta, GA. While I enjoyed my time there and respected the organization, I knew that it was not type of environment I wanted to work for. The path to success was a slow one at best. I did not want to spend my days working harder than my colleagues and trying to get ahead, but stuck in a line waiting for a promotion. I wanted to work for a company where working harder than everyone in the room would get you ahead, regardless of timelines or seniority. I love working for Insight Global for many reasons and although not always easy, it has been well worth my while. The main thing I have recognized, is that if you work hard for this company, they will work harder for you. If you work hard the companies goals, for your colleagues, and for yourself, they will take care of you and help you advance your career in any way possible. I have the privileged of working for the best management and executives around. The communication is open and encouraged. They are constantly taking individual employees out to breakfast or lunch just to touch base and see how you are doing. What we do every day is not easy, it is not always fun, and no one acts like it is. The path to success is not easy for everyone, but you won’t be alone at any time along the way. What makes me want to come to work every day is the people. The people care about you and your career. I work among some of my best friends and the environment is incredible. In order for our office to be successful, we all have to work hard for everyone else. You don’t come in and do your own thing every day and leave when you think you are all done. We have a team mentality, everyone works hard for everyone else and that is what makes us successful. The environment is high energy, fast paced, and positive. I could come to work in the worst possible mood and within minutes it has faded. With all of this being said, at the end of the day you are here to make money and establish a career. Those two things can be found in any of our offices around the country. The financial opportunity is endless and it is all about how hard you want to work to get to where you want to be. The business and money are there, and your work ethic is honestly an exact reflection of your pay check. Insight Global encourages long term goals, both professionally and personally. They are continuously opening new roles within the company and new opportunity to fit their employees goals and stages of their life. It all comes back around to the fact that if you give this company your all, they will give it right back to you and more .

As an Insight Global contractor, assigned to the Department of Defense, we are allowed to arrive and work at the office without a government employee being present.  This is a great improvement over past policies because we do not have to wait for someone to arrive before entering our workspace.  The time of arrval and length still remains the same.  The more time you spend producing and fullfiling your responsibilities reduces the stress of trying to catch up. 

 Management has been great with minimal amount of micromanaging and inclusion in weekly staff meetings allows us to be part of the team.  This is a good approach to having management include the workers in the overall project but limits the amount of non-productive meetings.

The majority of the co-workers are contractors with a vast amount of experience and knowledge.  With this knowledge and experience the co-workers know the protocol and expectations of the job.  Therefore, the ability to take the initiative of working within the boundaries of management's responsibilities is a valued trait.

This winter has been atypical because the amount of snow has been incredible and as a result, caused the office to close on numerous occassions.  The government employees were allowed to work from home, by using their government laptops because the information was not classified. The contractors did not have the same opportunity to telecommute and stay current with their job responsibilities, even though the contractor's laptops were unclassified.  

The most enjoyable part of the job is being to put into practice my skills,knowledge and experience, as an Instructional Systems Designer (ISD).  This skill and ability is difficult to accomplish but everyone tries to produce a viable product.  The transition to online training/education, as opposed to face to face instruction, presents its challenges. Those instructors and who are able develop a new approach to learning and fedback to students will have the most success.  Therefore, it is up to the student to coach himself/herself.  I don't know of any professional athlete (sports team), who is allowed to train without a coach and then compete against other teams.  This is the challenging criteria to produce learning that is accurate, quality training and speed to quickly learn and produce results.

Insight Global has been very supportive in my work with the Department of Defense and would recommend them as being an outstanding company.

Windows 7 Migration there were several steps I would take before doing the migration.  First I would contact the customer and discuss a good time that I could take their laptop  or desktop for a maximum of 3 hours to perform the migration. Once that time was agreed  on I would take a form that had my information and their user name and information and go  over any special applications that would need to be installed on the new Windows 7 image. I  then get his or her signature allowing me to take the machine for the migration. Once I was in  the lab with the machine instead of manually backing up their profile I used a Windows 7 easy  transfer tool with a file that I ran called migwiz which was a Windows easy transfer application  and It would it would be launched on their XP environment as essentially it gathered all of the  different profiles including the current users and older users, once it pulled up all the different  profiles that have been used on that pc. I would select the administrator profile the current  users profile and the shared items profile. All the other profile of others users that used the  computer before the current one would be unchecked. I would run the transfer and depending  on how much data the users profile had It mostly take an hour and once it was complete I  would create a folder on my thumb drive named as the current user Now I would power off the  machine and insert my thumb drive and press the power button while pressing the F12 button  so I could get into boot option and select the usb drive and that is when the new Windows 7  image would begin to install. After the image finished it will have already have have me logged  into the windows 7 environment. What I had to do at Kinder Morgan I would have to first join  the computer to the users correct domain. Then I disable the windows updates and run a  SCCM client application that would install a configuration manager that would install certain  group policies and once they were installed I could then go to Window update an run the  updates. I run a disk cleanup tool and disk defragment tool. The final step was that I would  open that users folder that I saved on my thumb drive and run the Windows easy transfer tool  that would put the users profile, administrator and the shared items profile on the fresh  Windows 7 OS. The migration was complete at this point. If I had the users login info then I  log into as user open email and make sure all the applications were functioning properly and  return the pc back to the user. It would usually take me up to 3 hours to complete the Windows  7 Migration

Insight Global might be a tempting option for a first job out of college, but my experience with them has been far from pleasant. Several cons make this company a difficult place to work:

Toxic Culture: The work environment at Insight Global is rife with toxicity. There's a constant pressure to meet unrealistic expectations, which fosters a cutthroat atmosphere among colleagues. The lack of genuine support or camaraderie leaves employees feeling isolated and stressed.

Early Morning Role-Playing and Pointless Office Hours: Starting your day with role-playing at 7 am feels forced and unproductive. Additionally, being expected to be in the office by 7:30 am, only to find there's no real purpose for the early hours, is frustrating and a waste of time.

Forced In-Office Work: Despite the changing landscape of work, Insight Global insists on forcing employees to work in the office. This inflexibility can be demotivating and ignores the benefits of remote work.

Anxiety-Inducing Time Off Requests: Seeking time off is met with anxiety as employees fear backlash or consequences for taking time for themselves, creating an unhealthy work-life balance.

Misleading "Fun" Incentives: Insight Global tries to entice employees with happy hours and work events, but it's disappointing to find out that you have to pay for everything or suffer through them without enjoying the experience fully.

Judgment for Missing After-Work Events: If you're unable to attend after-work events, you can expect judgment and disapproval from management and colleagues, creating unnecessary stress and guilt.

Unprofessional Leadership Behavior: The leadership's practice of blocking or unfollowing employees on social media after they leave the company is unprofessional and lacks respect for personal boundaries.

Isolation and Lost "Friendships": Many "friendships" within Insight Global seem to be superficial and contingent on remaining with the company. When you leave, don't expect genuine support from former colleagues.

Pyramid Scheme Allegations: There have been concerns raised by some about Insight Global's business model, with some likening it to a pyramid scheme, adding another layer of concern for potential employees.

In summary, Insight Global may offer a stepping stone for recent graduates, but its toxic culture, rigid policies, and unprofessional behavior of leadership make it a company to approach with caution. The alleged pyramid scheme-like structure and the loss of genuine connections with colleagues further add to the drawbacks of working there.

I've been working here on a contract for between 6 and 12 months for a large corporation. It's supposed to be temp to hire by 12 months, but I am getting close and know other people who have stayed temps for 15 months.

I've worked at numerous temp or recruiting places, and I have NEVER had cause to file a complaint with the state before now. The pay rate I negotiated is great, but there are underpayments more often than accurate checks.

I have a hunch it's a pyramid/MLM scam for the recruiters. Recruiters get base pay plus salary, but the account manager they report to gets a higher commission on every contract one of their multiple recruiters lands.

I must have had 4 interviews with this company, never with the same person. Only one of these led to an interview.

Communication is terrible. My recruiter is gone (but the account manager keeps her commission), and nobody told me for months. Now I go directly to the account manager, but I have no idea who her supervisor is.

The pay is weekly, which makes it hard for me personally to budget, but more to the point, it makes payroll rushed, pushy, and sloppy. It also doubles the checks you have to get fixed. I've been underpaid at least 70% of my checks. Getting the back pay is like pulling teeth. If you work anything other than regular hours, expect them to screw it up.

I'm applying to other places, even though I like the work well enough. The pay I'm getting is not bad for the work I'm doing, but a competing company has someone getting 5-7 more dollars per hour.

I'm taking the next offer I get just to escape these bungling idiots... or intentional thieves. I'm not sure which, but they don't want to fix the problem because they keep the money they don't pay me.

Oh, and their health insurance is a high deductible plan (you pay 100% up to the 6,000 deductible) from United healthcare. It would run me about 550/month to take it. On the ACA exchange, my premiums are under 400 for much better coverage.

I would work for these chuckleheads again if the contract was a set time before permanent hire. The money is good despite being ripped off every week.

The first day a manager came in and started yelling at everyone.
We have 30000 servers to build... yada yada yada

He would only come in occasionally and yell at people then leave.
It seemed they were just looking for seat warmers than workers.
He was a big guy who always parked in the handicapped spot who 
in my eyes wasn't handicapped...

6 months in the contract.. The team may have built 500 servers..
If that.  
They were redomaining everyones laptops at one point then 
the yelling began again....  that didn't happen and was put off for 2 weeks.  They sent out an email saying everyone should put this Norton/Symantec VIP software on out personal phones for the redomaining.  It was also put on the laptops. And the cell phones weren't needed.
Every other time I have used Norton and removed it from any PC I had it on the PC would crash shortly after.. Seems Norton doesn't like having their software removed.

Well most of the redomaining didn't work correctly.
The second day my lead told me to go into a conference room where they would fix it.  I went in there and there were 2 guys in there.
One was there because his didn't work and the other.... well I don't know what his job was.  He told the guy in front of me to wait until the smart guy shows up,  he didn't know what he was doing.

Then he asked me for my laptop. Then asked me for my cell phone.
I asked why. He immediately got an attitude and said I told everyone to put this software on their cell phone. I told him it was right there on my laptop... Same thing. He told me to get out.
He was arrogant and worthless as far as I was concerned.
I waited a couple hours for the smart guy to show up then went back in there.  The smart guy was a tall blonde female who immediately resat my laptop and started the software updates.  I then got a page from the lead from Insight Global to meet her in the lobby.. I knew what was happening. I was walked out because the worthless guy complained about me. And she was the one who sent out the email asking everyone to put the software on their phones. I think they were involved with each other..  Doesn't matter because I would never work for Insight Global again.

There are many staffing agencies out there and many are not worthy of mentioning. However, Insight Global rose up and above my expectations.
My hiring experience as a contract Wireless Engineer for a large major corporation was nothing less than exceptional. I had interviews with two professional and wonderful Insight Global HR representatives who then set up an interview with a large corporation. The process and transitions were quick and smooth. Insight Global walked with me step-by-step, filling in the blanks, and guiding me throughout the Client hiring and testing process.
I was hired as a contract Wireless Engineer with the potential and possibility of being a permanent employee after six months. I now perform wireless surveys and assessments at major hospitals across the country.  The job entails extensive travel, interfacing with the hospital CIO and staff, planning, performing wireless surveys and assessments, assessment documentation and reports, peer reviews, Internal and Client meetings.  Knowledge of 802.11x is a fundamental requirement and one is always tested.
The job I have now is challenging and competitive amongst my peers within the department and corporation I work for. I would not have it any other way! They provide support and positive encouragement all the time. My training was with the best the department had to offer.
The most challenging parts of the job are transitioning from AirMagnet to Ekahau; theory, practice, technical specifications, documentation, and reporting. 
The most rewarding part of the job is working with a hospital from beginning to end and certifying it is wireless "best practice" compliant.
In conclusion, Insight Global is a great staffing agency with access to job portals for the professional who seeks employment to further develop his/her craft. Professional, courteous, and understanding one's needs in the technology realm is an understatement at Insight Global.

Worked for this company for two years, my recruiter is a consummate professional, willing and able to discuss the contract and job conditions at any time. This organization values their team members, and will work to provide the best working conditions . 

My typical day was self started, I got my cases via phone or laptop case management app, and went to the parts place to get the part for the affected PC or server, (later printers as well.) Drove to the customer site, and using the stringent guidelines provided, repaired or reconfigured the device to restore functionality.

I learned a great deal! I was able to garner quite a few certifications via vendor specific training and testing made available through the contract's education system. I made learning a high priority, not only to advance my career, but to live up to my motto of learning something useful everyday.

Workplace culture was remote from this organization, I worked as a semi autonomous tech, from my home office. Submitting time and expenses online was a painless task. 

The hardest part of this job was watching a project, and team, that we had started from its Proof of Concept stage and seen accepted by the customer based on our initial teams' hard work and dedication, slowly become clouded and "pared down" to the point where people started leaving out of fatigue and frustration. The work was not hard, but having to drive an ever increasing amount of miles to get to the areas left bereft of a qualified tech (by attrition,) started to wear many techs to the bone. 

The most enjoyable part of the job was the team, by far. Customers were a pleasure to work with most of the time, and the technical support team for our end user contract was mostly competent and courteous. The freedom to schedule cases based on priority and proximity was a blessing.

This is an excellent place to work overall. They really provide expousre to the 4 most important things workers look for in a company.

1. Pay: You will start at a fair salary to begin with. But once you branch out into other roles the compensation structure is extremely fair and good. This is a commision based job so obviously your work ethic and motivation to be successful ultimately will reflect on your paycheck.
2. Growth: There is so much opportunity in this company for growth which is essential to progessing as a professional. Most companies will keep you stagnant to save money or just because thats the way the structure goes. At Insight Global you manage your career, this is due to the fact that they only promote from within. If you are ready to make the next steps into higher level roles, the opportunity to do so is there, you just need to work for it.
3. Purpose: People want a purpose to the work they do, and why shouldnt they? At Insight Global you are working to find people jobs, providing an opportunity to a person who may really be in need of one. Essentially finding someone a job could change someones financial situation, happiness in pursuing their dream etc. There is also a sense of mentorship once you progress. You will be able to pass your knowledge and wisdom along to others to help them grow professionally to be successful, and whats better than seeing your peers succeed?
4. Culture: This is without a doubt the best part about the company. It is so common to see people unhappy with their co-workers or just in general not be able to make a connection with them. At Insight Global everyone has the same motives, aspirations and personality as each other, but at the same time are very different people. It is a family culture where everyone goes out of their way to help each other. On top of that we work hard and play harder. We celebrate our wins and always make sure to enjoy life on top of work.

The supervisors seem to genuinely care, although I was switched to my 3rd supervisor at the start of my 7th month. The daily work makes me feel like I did something meaningful throughout the day, because I actually helped people with something they need not something that they just want. There are not any paid time off on holidays, and we aren’t able to work on holidays to get holiday pay. If you experience  tech issues that are because of your internet connection issues then it’s justifiably unpaid, but if the issues are due to problems on their end always save proof and be prepared to fight for that time to be paid or don’t expect to have timesheet approved. You’re paid for working down to the minute, so be sure to calculate your weekly hours down to the minute. First time I have worked for a company that doesn’t pay you for time spent in coaching, and the time scheduled for the coaching times is either before or after your shift. Bereavement time is given as long as you provide an obituary or something similar, but this is Unpaid bereavement. I have been with the company for 8.5 months and have not been given any PTO, but at the beginning of month 7 everyone was given a $1 raise per hour. I think there are some health benefits and 401k program, although it requires employees to research and inquire about it or you’ll never hear about any of it. Things aren’t exactly how they are described during the recruitment process, once hired expectations are changed and if you don’t meet them then don’t expect to be around very long. Out of the 19 people I started with, there are 3 left. Do your job well and they’ll keep you as long as possible but job security lasts only as long as Insight Globals contract with the client, once the contact is up so is your time working…
