Pros

There are still some people at ICF Olson who put up with the toxicity and you might call them friends even after you inevitably get screwed over here.

Cons

Mediocre men rule the roost and have all banded together to ensure they stay at the top. There are fewer women in leadership here than any other agency in Minneapolis. I’ve never worked at a place that has zero integrity but tries so hard to prove otherwise (they use empathy as a tag line, it’s as gross as it sounds). You will feel the slime almost immediately after starting. Interns, use this place if you must and then get out. Just know their local reputation is so bad you might not even want it on your resume.
