Pros

Modern, open office space Open kitchen with fresh fruit and snacks Great benefits including RRSP match Cool social events and company swag Good place to start your career if you are looking for entry level roles or are fresh out of university

Cons

Lacking direction and leadership Little opportunity for advancement Raises are difficult to earn and salary is low especially IF you manage to move internally A lot of politics and conflict between departments Difficult to give feedback without feeling targeted Clique culture which in some departments can hinder your advancement Despite gathering internal feedback, it seems as though management isn’t focused on or applying effort to what we are explicitly sharing about our experience.

Pros

Nice people, invested in your growth at the company. Also, good pay for most positions, but expectations are high.

Cons

Management often chosen by seniority instead of ability. Promotions and raises are often fulfilled long after they are promised.
