ION Group reviews

- The CEO is the most unethical professional I've ever worked for. His blatant disregard for following employment laws and finacial regulations is incredible. - The CEO surrounds himself with yes men. No one challenges him, because his temper is legendary and he pays them well. The incompetent ones sometimes leave, but are replaced by another suck-up. - The non-compete agreement employees must sign lists every competitor - and they will try to enforce it, which means you're a prisoner - The US HR team is almost non-existent, Good people, but no support for HR, so they basically just keep the lights on. - So many good companies have been acquired by ION, decimated, and limp along as a shell of what they once were. Employees become demoralized and leave in droves. - ION sucks the cash/capital out of every new acquisition to feed the next acquisition. The greed is incredible, and they are leveraged beyond comprehension.

Expect to be given the worst tasks and treated poorly, under the guise of learning 'leadership' - You will likely burn out 🔥 before any tangible benefits to your career. If you're being taken over by ION, ensure to update your CV and get looking - no matter what is promised it will inevitably result in 'cost savings' and mass redundancy 🎯 - This is a cycle well repeated with numerous aquisitions ♻. The middle management is dire and seeking to keep their roles as long as possible; you'll often see mad panics prior to any meeting with the senior mgmt/board. This results more often than not in expected all nighters and 'just get it done' attitude, usually cutting corners.
