Insight Global bad service, duplicitous, unprofessional, misleading, unscrupulous, deceitful Richmond, VA Nationwide

Took 2 months to get me into position after I had been hired. Had to keep contacting them for next step & oftentimes multiple requests to get response. Had me running back & forth to get background check & other foundational efforts completed, as they didn’t know what the process actually entailed. This meant a number of unnecessary [lengthy] trips to various locations for nothing. Issued incorrect information about position specifics / skills, etc needed. I visited w/ employer 1st day & saw it wasn’t good fit. Shared w/ employer (good company & staff) that I wouldn’t take the role. IG then bugged me to file for full day payment – so they could bill the employer. This persisted & I had to insist they stop as I saw it as unethical to charge the employer for a literal meeting.

IG not terribly different from the many realtor-esque recruitment entities these days. IG is very cliché presence of such piranha organizations. Serve as little more than an unpleasant employment parasite obstacle for industry & talent to necessarily negotiate. Pronounced air of entitlement among IG staff making swallowing the fact they were stealing 30% of my income over life of contract. Do little more than get in the way of any good process, bring donuts & take massive sums of your money.

I’ve never written such a review. IG bugged me to write a positive review for them on Glassdoor before they even got me into new position. Literally asked me to write positive review & send to them for review before posting – & they didn’t even have me working, yet! This is ironically the main reason for my posting this. NOT a good experience.
