Pros

IQPC offers many opportunities for those with a strong work ethic and passion for sales. This is a great place for entry-level sales people to develop their skills and seasoned professionals to join senior teams. You will be walked through everything (CRM best practices, sales templates, objection training, etc.) in detail. Management strives to set everyone up for success through onboarding and ongoing training. Success is rewarded with promotions to senior teams and opportunities to take on more responsibilities. There are also opportunities to transition to other departments such as marketing or production after getting a good sense of the industry and finding your passion. IQPC offers a great work-life balance but you need to be self-motivated and okay with a fast paced environment. Friday happy hours and lasting friendships are common because of a younger workforce full of amazing and personable people. Your direct manager will always go to bat for you and have your back.

Cons

Base salary can be higher but additional compensation opportunities are always being implemented.

Pros

Title: Great company to work for with an agile and talented team Pros: Working as a Portfolio Manager at IQPC was a great experience. The company is incredibly agile and has a strong ability to adapt to market changes, which is vital in the highly competitive events and conferences industry. This adaptability allows IQPC to stay ahead of trends and continue delivering relevant and high-quality events. The people here are some of the smartest and most capable I’ve had the pleasure of working with — it’s clear that IQPC attracts top talent and fosters a collaborative, supportive environment. One of the standout aspects of the company is how much they invest in their rising talent. There are continuous opportunities for development, and the performance-based pay structure is a great motivator. It not only rewards individual contributions but also drives the company’s success as a whole. This culture of incentivizing high performance was one of the key factors in my own personal and professional growth while there. Overall: IQPC is a solid company with a lot of potential for growth. The leadership is forward-thinking, the people are sharp, and the culture rewards results. While the sales team dynamic might not be perfect, it’s a small downside in an otherwise great work environment. Would recommend to anyone who thrives in a fast-paced, results-oriented setting!

Cons

Cons: Like many fast-paced companies, there is a bit of ego on the sales team. While this is somewhat expected in a high-energy, results-driven environment, it can occasionally cause friction between departments. However, this is something that can be managed with effective communication and collaboration. For junior staff it can be a challenging environment to meet deadlines.

Pros

people were nice enough to work with

Cons

I worked for SSON, our managing director liked to preach that they advocated for their employees, but I was let go, through no fault of my own per their words, after bad training and no real support for the new role I was taking on. Also, there is zero work/life balance despite being able to work from home 2 days a week, my team was exhausted and upper management did not care.
