Intertape Polymer Group Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"What sets IPG apart from other companies is how every single employee is genuinely considered and treated like family. Not only does this greatly improve the quality of life for the employees it also makes great business sense. The goodwill is reciprocated from the employees in terms of doing what it takes to reach the company goals. This may sound a little "pie in the sky" but the proof is in the company performance, surpassing and acquiring their competitors. Truly a win-win for all involved."

"Be cautious - this company has good work-experience potential, but you'll definitely have to deal with some crazies."

What don't you like about working at Intertape Polymer Group?

"In the department I worked in, the team was very dramatic. They liked picking an outcast (kind of like the cliques in high school) and would rotate who they picked-on from week to week. It's very detrimental to the other employees, and not a welcoming work environment. The people I dealt with were in their 40s too, which doesn't speak to their maturity. Some of these people had put in 10+ years with the company, so they'll probably be around for a while longer. Look out - they purposefully got a few people fired for undeserving reasons, and then lied to upper management to cover their butts! I definitely tiptoed around while I worked there! Glad I've moved on now."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Upper Management should check on mid-management more frequently. They typically had a hands-off approach, and middle-management got away with a lot of shady things as a result."
