Pros

I've just completed my first month at Applied Systems and have never experienced a better work environment in my life. Everyone is both motivated and supportive in what they do and everyone is extremely organized. My higher ups treat me with respect and do not doubt my abilities, despite my young age and are always willing to put their crucial projects in my hands. The benefits and pay are amazing and I feel extremely lucky to be here.

Cons

Honestly, the only con I can think of is the continuity issues with the previous branding, but all of that is being addressed currently.

Pros

Workplace is nice, colleagues are OK

Cons

I heard they are asked to add positive reviews because there were too many negative ones. So don't trust all of them...

Pros

Work life balance is ok, my own work load is different from time to time but overall it is ok. Manager is supportive and helpful (but only mentions your flaws in the annual review). You get your birthdays off.

Cons

Low pay, 10 vacation days per year, no RRSP match. Training is non-existent, watch and learn, mess up a few projects and learn things the hard way. No room for improvement, I have colleagues who are in the same role for more than 5 years with no promotion. Nothing to learn once you can do the job you are assigned to do. You don't need anything new to learn, let your brain rot. Culture is non existent. Bagels! That's what the company culture is built around. The Christmas parties are getting worse every year and you are not even allowed to bring your significant other to the party. This year's lunch BBQ was a shame. Procedures are changing every few weeks and you have to keep up with how-to docs put on random locations on the network, random updates that noone hears about and new instructions that you can't find anywhere except in an email someone sent a few weeks ago. I can't believe that as a tech company in the 21st century they are too cheap to buy some new hard drives for the shared space.
