Pros

a job you can have for the next 6 months

Cons

Can this owner take any more costs out of the business? The answer often seems to be yes. The demographic shift within the firm appears deliberate and is visible to many. When a company hires large numbers of graduates each year, regularly removes lower, and mid-ranked performing employees, and does not meaningfully replace experienced staff, the workforce gradually shifts toward a lower-cost and younger profile by design. The headcount cuts have started in May 2025 and continued for months on end, with new rounds every month. The result is a workplace where many employees feel there is limited long-term career perspective, limited growth, and limited protection. That is the reality many associate with ION.

Pros

Great view from the NYC office. Had a great team which is why I stayed so long (over 12 years).

Cons

No direction, no transparency, no communication from leadership, bonuses cut, and now mass layoffs.
