Pros

A lot of great people work here and are tragically undervalued or their well-meaning efforts are blocked by the way the company is run. Example of value CEO places on employees: stated company policy is that employees not use the front door. Only mornings are enforced but full written policy includes all times of day. Example of good employees, bad company: individuals from different areas volunteer their time and efforts on leadership-promised projects that have no assigned resources and that they are not "responsible" for. Flexible work hours in general though the company line is that dedication is shown only through overtime and sacrifice of work life balance.

Cons

Publicly likes to release a lot of statements in support of diversity, pride, empowerment, etc., but company policies actively instill a patriarchic and conservative work environment from the top down with no active policies or business practices promoting diversity. Leadership is completely out of touch with employee views. For example, when asked about lack of diversity in top leadership, answers have ranged from details about the CEOs ancestry to denial based on inclusion of 2 white women (out of maybe 10, one recently added). So basically the answer is they do not value diversity (not being against it is not equal to valuing it). Boys club with accelerated advancement for established favorites. All messages from CEO have an undertone of sexism, including commentary during company-wide meetings about female employee's family planning. Not interested in feedback or improvement - as evidenced by the company's responses only to positive reviews on this site that ignore majority of substantive reviews (as of writing this). C-suite wants to pass it off as a technology or data company but there is a lack of resources devoted to creating successful data processes and instead a focus on selling first, trying to cobble together the promised products later. This is a general issue across the business as communication between the departments and different levels is horrible. Goals and prioritized projects are frequently misaligned from operational realities. Frequent restructures and acquisitions are basis for company claiming to be agile but are poorly executed - good intentioned people and their concerns are shut down to acquiesce to CEOs views/unrealistic timeline. Constant solicitation of praise for c-suite members for doing their job and being well compensated while employees are expected to be overjoyed with their own pittances. Really gross and hard to watch during company-wide "town hall" meetings.

Inmar policy is to respond to reviews posted by current Inmar associates. We respect the decision of former associates who decided that the Inmar culture was not a personal fit for them and wish them the very best. Our focus is to respond to and engage with current associates to continue growing as a team. Continuous improvement is one of the corporate values that guide us, realizing there is always room for growth as individuals and as a company. We work to be better every day. While many of our locations across North American are wonderfully diverse and we have made progress in the past decade. That said, an ongoing and formal initiative, under the direction of the EVP responsible for human resource functions, continually identifies ways to ensure we expand and cultivate a diverse talent pool and associate population. We hold strongly that diverse teams and diversity of thought provide the best results and we are committed to continued progress in this area. We also are committed to providing a culture that is not only diverse but one that is inclusive. As a large company with locations across North America, our Town Hall meetings allow us an opportunity to celebrate our team members’ successes, gather the entire Leadership team for a panel discussion, and align on goals. Not all questions from thousands of associates can be addressed in that forum. However, they can be submitted during monthly Pulse Surveys, to which our CEO responds directly. All CEO Pulse Survey response videos are available on our intranet site. Inmar is innovating and growing quickly and our culture is not right for everyone. If you would like a personal, confidential meeting with our EVP, Corporate Communications and Great Teams, to discuss your perspective, please reach out to her directly. She will be happy to have an open and honest discussion with you.

Pros

1. Strong people and collaborative culture One of the most positive aspects of working at Inmar is the quality of the people. I have experienced thoughtful leaders, talented colleagues, and teams that genuinely want to solve problems together. There is a willingness to collaborate across functions, which creates an environment where ideas can move forward and people support one another. 2. Meaningful work and business impact Inmar operates in industries that have real impact on consumers and businesses. The work connects technology, healthcare, retail, and analytics in ways that influence large markets. This creates opportunities to contribute to initiatives that truly matter and shape how the company grows globally. 3. Leadership that encourages learning and possibility thinking There is an openness to new ideas and continuous improvement. I appreciate leaders who challenge teams to think bigger, question assumptions, and explore even better ways of working. This mindset creates space for innovation and transformation. 4. Opportunity to build and improve systems as the company evolves Because the organization is growing and evolving, there are many opportunities to improve processes, governance, and operating models. For people who enjoy building and shaping the future of an organization, this environment provides meaningful challenges and learning.

Cons

1. Rapid change can create ambiguity As the company continues to grow and transform, priorities and structures sometimes shift quickly. While change is necessary, it can occasionally create uncertainty about direction, roles, or processes. 2. Processes and operating models are still maturing Some functions are still evolving their frameworks, which can lead to fragmentation or inconsistent practices across teams or regions. This is a natural stage for organizations scaling globally but requires disciplined alignment. 3. Communication across the organization can be strengthened In a growing organization, information sometimes travels unevenly across teams or levels of leadership. Improving communication clarity can help employees better understand priorities and decisions. 4. Career pathways can be clearer for employees Many employees are eager to grow within the company. Continued focus on career development and visibility into advancement paths would strengthen retention and engagement.
