Pros

Good single healthcare coverage through ADP. It's about 5$ of your monthly paycheck. Workflow process is efficient and organized

Kontras

One of the biggest issues I had with this start up was lack of thorough training and clear communication. Yes, of-course you have your weekly "education" sessions on Monday where any employee can elaborate on vague topics. Although the probability of those topics cross functionally applying to your skillset is less than. The majority of employees are younger. Generally not an issue, but if you're looking for a group of entry level employees who shamelessly talk about drinking 24-7 and are not genuine in their conversations - go ahead. You have two different departments, SEO & PPC. The PPC department is extremely isolating and left in the dark most of the time. Lack of training was so apparent because no one had the time or ability to train their employees. John threatens his employees to attain a certain workload in the most passive aggressive way that it became very annoying and authoritarian. If you want to ensure a person can handle the client workload I'd recommend including that information in the job description or explain during the interview process. Simply put you have a bunch of naive and young employees who will "follow" the leader. I think there needs to be a huge improvement in the way the employees treat each other when on-boarding new staff. Felt left out most of the time and not included in any type of group meeting or project. It felt like I was there, but in passing. It was annoying as hell, but of-course you do not want to ruffle any feathers in the beginning of a new job. Just so odd to me that the employees here think this company is a diamond in the haystack - because it's not. The majority of your perks are basic as pumpkin spice. Then again these employees are young and really fresh in the working environment. (so they don't know what's better) It was clear as day how I was treated. John and the c-suite belittling my intelligence, my work skills and my capability to do my job effectively. Bro house galore at the top.

Hi There, This is John Lincoln the CEO. I'm very sorry to hear about this. I am unclear if you are a current employee or a past employee and what department you are in. I'm going to write this response as if you are a current employee who has been at Ignite for over one year. I do wish you would have talked to me or a manager if this were the case... My top priority is employee success... If it is the case the you do still work at Ignite, I would love to speak with you. If you don’t feel comfortable coming to me, you can go to your Director, Krish (our president) or our head of HR. We can also keep it anonymous. Either way, let’s please talk. Regarding the advice you offered, we are always working to improve. Let’s find a way to get you back on track. I am here with an open door and will not hold this review against you. Instead we can use it as an opportunity to work with you to improve your current situation over the next 30 days. Couple things I would like to address. 1. Yes the healthcare is good and we continue to expand it. We are also looking to add even more perks, on top of the excellent salaries we offer. 2. Thank you for the compliment on the workflow process. We have worked very hard on it. 3. You mention issues with training. We have a massive database of training materials and a good system in place. I do think our training is good and continues to get better each day. 4. We have very diverse employees here. 5. Our three biggest departments are SEO, PPC and social media. We have Amazon, email and CRO which are growing. 6. We do have a certain minimum workload requirement which is discussed with all employees when they are interviewing here. It is discussed in every interview and is clear in the offer letter. 7. We also do have a tests on PPC side. We have specific questions on the SEO and social side. Also, most of our people have many years of experience. The large majority of our employees are happy here. I'm sorry you are not. But writing this review is not the best way to fix it. All it takes is a simple slack message to me or your manager. We care a great deal about the people and about you!
