Thank you for your review. We're disappointed to hear about your experience with us. Having to make redundancies is always our last option and we review all other solutions before moving forward with this, but sometimes it is unavoidable in business. Once the redundancy has been confirmed with no other alternatives, we find that allowing the employee to leave without working their notice where possible, is a better option for the individual. We encourage employees to provide feedback on how we can improve these processes. Even though you have now left the business, if you did want to talk to us, we would welcome this. Please email the People Team - people@inspiredthinking.group We are very proud of our enhanced benefits package, which we review annually and is currently above benchmark for similar sized businesses. It is unfortunate that you didn't make use of this.

Pros

• Fully remote • I loved the work, my boss, and my team (but the client was allowed to run wild) • Promotes diversity (but the formerly robust DEI program at PureRed silently vanished when ITG took over) • Unlimited PTO policy

Cons

I was a victim of the sixth or seventh round of of layoffs within under two years—and there's been another round this month—due to "offshoring" jobs ("rightsizing", "competing in a global marketplace", "globalization", "nearshoring", blah, blah, blah). ITG f/k/a PureRed cares FAR more about money than people. They're axing very talented, hard-working, and driven people only to replace them with cheaper labor in South America and South Asia (while claiming "it's not about cheaper labor"). The company's goal is absolutely to replace all subexecutives with "offshored" labor. ITG claims to be different and better with claims of "transparency" and a "culture of kindness", but they're just like all the other corporate machines with cronyism, high-paid executives (some of whom who get golden parachutes after mergers and buyouts), very low-paid worker bees, and a bunch of lip service. I've never been more disappointed in a company. Just be evil and own it. Stop lying to everyone. And PLEASE stop the crocodile tears, leadership. Have some self-awareness. You've axed people who make very little money in one of the worst job markets in years. Spare us the theatrics.

Hi There, thank you for your feedback, its disappointing to hear that your experience with ITG / PureRed wasn't the best - 2025 saw some difficult trading conditions as well as economic and political challanges, and led to some difficult decisions being made - That said we do acknowledge the impact this had on some of our teams - Our Wellbeing and Diversity programs are still as strong as ever and remain an amazing source of support for our global teams. I hope you are prospering now and enjoying your work.
