      Thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear you felt growth opportunities were limited. At Article, we see that career growth goes beyond titles. Article is a dynamic organization, and that means teams will shift their structure to better serve our customers and support long-term sustainability. In this case, we merged two teams to promote cross-training and expand development paths. While most team members embraced this change, we understand it wasn’t the right fit for everyone. We appreciate your contributions during your time here and wish you all the best in your next chapter.

      Great Work Environment and Flexibility, but Career Growth and Structure Could Improve

      N/a
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The work/life balance is excellent, allowing for both personal and professional fulfillment. In my team, we were not expected to work on weekends, and summers were particularly chill, with most people wrapping up early on Fridays and having the flexibility to plan their work during the week. The hybrid work model offers great flexibility, while the team members are incredibly helpful and supportive, fostering a collaborative environment. Meetings are kept to a minimum, which allows for more focused work time. The pay was also competitive, and they recently introduced an RRSP program, which is a nice added benefit. Article is a growing, profitable company that is doing well despite the competitive landscape. Nice company events like the summer Olympics and Halloween were great for team bonding, providing a fun way for team members to spend time together in the office. I also loved the fact that I could bring my pet to the office, which made the work environment feel even more welcoming. :)

      Cons

      Career growth opportunities are limited, particularly for senior ICs and mid-level managers. Some internal hires turned managers lack people management skills, which results in inadequate support for their teams. The company sometimes struggles with a lack of clear structure, leading to disorganization and difficulty in managing tasks. Communication and alignment across teams could be improved to reduce confusion and rework. Frequent tech transitions have required significant unlearning and relearning, often without proper risk assessments. The hybrid work model is somewhat inconsistent—people hired remotely before COVID can work from home, but new hires do not have that option. This creates a fluid and sometimes awkward in-office dynamic, where you may end up in the office alone, even if your team is not present. The company is a good fit for those seeking a more fluid, startup-like environment, but may not provide enough structure or growth opportunities for IC roles. Despite hard work, recognition and rewards can sometimes be lacking. Additionally, the feedback mechanism is one-sided, as there’s no opportunity to provide 360-degree feedback, particularly about managers.

      Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. There is a lot of thoughtful feedback here, that has been shared and discussed by the People & Culture Leadership team. Specific to a few points - we know there are opportunities to improve the way employees are recognized for their work at Article and we'll be making some changes this year to help address this. Additionally, we do have 360 feedback mechanism for managers with upward reviews from their direct reports. This might not have been used when you worked with us but it is now. Finally, in regards to career development opportunities, we do have Grow tracks for most jobs, however, ultimately the person driving career progression needs to be the individual themselves as the paths laid out might differ from that person's personal goals and interests.

      Hi there, we’re glad you’re enjoying the opportunity to learn, our collaborative approach and the perks we offer. Regarding any bias in our promotions, the process is rigorous, well-documented and based on merit. For HQ promotions, each one is presented and approved by CEO and for frontline promotions, the same process happens from that department leader. Looking at the promotion data, holistically across Article, it shows that people of all backgrounds are being promoted, growing and succeeding. However, if there is something we can do to improve our promotion practices, we’d encourage you reach out to People & Culture Business Partner if you’d like to discuss more.
