6yWe couldn’t agree more! We believe strongly in empowerment at ICD – take the initiative, show interest and we will let you run. Growth opportunities are limitless for high performers willing to go above and beyond. The first five people hired at ICD Technology are still employed here, each approaching their respective 10-year anniversaries. Of our 31 current employees, 9 of them were referred by existing employees.
ICD is a growing company and our new partner continues to make sizable investments to facilitate growth in a responsible manner. Those investments have enabled acquisition of new tools to support the continuous improvement of our technology platform and have enabled ICD Technology to double its team size in less than two years.
We are proud of our history of taking care of our employees. “Work-life balance” is not just a slogan but is one of our most deeply cherished values. In addition to a standard allocation of work-from-home days, managerial discretion regularly provides flexibility for employees to coordinate their work lives with their personal responsibilities.
We currently have some salaries below market; however, these cases are the result of employees being hired at entry level, then becoming substantially more valuable as a result of the education and training opportunities offered as a benefit to ICD employees. In some cases, these employees have leveraged that increase in value to obtain higher pay from other companies, although in most cases these employees have continued with ICD because we ensure that future pay increases – sometimes quite significant – ultimately bring them back in line with the market. In all cases, we strongly support our employees’ career goals including if they choose to go elsewhere.
To the author of this review: If you are a former employee, we wish you the best in your future endeavors. If you are a current employee, we encourage you to take advantage of our universal open-door policy to air your concerns.
To others reading this review and response: If you are looking for a place where you can do busy work and avoid accountability, ICD is unlikely to be a satisfying work experience. However, if you are looking for a place that will provide a steady stream of exciting and interesting challenges, autonomy and resources to innovate and solve problems, and rewards for employees that step up to do so, you will find a welcoming and supportive team here at ICD.
