Executive leadership has their priorities out of whack

Pros

The company has a history of hiring quality employees.

Cons

Hiring quality executives? not so much. Executives are too interested in their own salary. Company is going through an 'insourcing' phase. In theory this is great, however the company is more interested in spending money on acquisitions than hiring more employees to support integration or even day-to-day operations. This causes existing employees to be overworked and putting out fires instead of actually planning for the future. Recently took over 8 months to find a new CIO after the 'catty' executive leadership currently in place forced the former CIO out.

Pros

Huge name in the IT industry, opportunity to make many connections as you will work with hundreds of top IT manufacturers. The employees are great, and many groups have a good community atmosphere. Tuition reimbursement which is helpful if you want to get more education. Also, good work/life balance. most managers are flexible with work hours.

Cons

The marketing organization is broken and not on the road to recovery. All they care about is the bottom line, and not providing valuable marketing programs to our vendor partners. They have reorganized the marketing programs many times, changing the marketing organization and re-packaging the same programs under different names. But nothing has truly changed. The management team feeds the marketing team the words to say to their vendors, but there isn't the real sales-driven marketing programs we need to truly provide the ROI that we could be. Also, after looking around it is clear that Ingram pays well below the average for marketing positions in the IT industry. It seems to be an official business strategy to overcharge for marketing and under pay the marketing associates - just for the bottom line. The management is aware that they are bleeding talent, but until they can become competitive in terms of pay, people will continue leaving.
