        Pros

        Working with smart, motivated people. Getting a lot of opportunity and responsibility for growth early on in your career. Flat structure allows for strong collaboration. Generous benefits.

        Cons

        Nothing to comment. What I find with IMC is that they always welcome new ideas, and invest a lot of time to ensure you have the right opportunities to continue your growth.

          So many! Most notable: very reasonable work hours, smart colleagues who are so generous with their time, great mentoring, heaps of learning and development opportunities, super nice office with healthy & delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner.

          Cons

          Priorities can change often and quickly so you need to be onboard with that.

                  Free food, good compensation relative to other industries and smart colleagues.

                  Cons

                  Long hours, rampant politics, with some of the lowest pay in the industry. Unfortunately, even the free food has been declining in quality.

                  Thank you for your honest feedback. We're happy to hear that you enjoy working alongside friendly colleagues and free daily meals. However, we're sorry to learn that you feel the hours are lengthy and that politics exist in the office. At IMC, we carefully hire people who are prepared for the challenge and sharp learning curve and believe we are transparent about the depth of the role throughout the application process. That said, work/life balance is essential to our employee experience. It's encouraged through bonus annual leave and flexibility built on trust with our employees. We hope you'll reach out to your dedicated HR Business Partner to discuss your concerns in more detail, as we're always open to understanding how we can improve.

                      Is it bad interview etiquette to ask about salary expectations WHEN the recruiter fails to bring that up in our screener? I did it so we could ensure alignment and the recruiter said she ‘usually waits to do that after the first call’ 🙄
