Pros

Great place for those who thrive in a dynamic environment and want to make a real impact. While there have been growing pains, the progress over the years has been rewarding to witness. Team culture is generally strong (varies by team), and the company values authenticity over corporate politics (for the most part), making it a refreshing place to work. Compensation is fair and there is ample opportunity to grow from within.

Cons

If you prefer rigid structures and clear-cut processes, this may not be the right fit. There's still work to be done in problem-solving and process development, but for those with initiative, there's an opportunity to help shape the future. While efforts to address process gaps are underway, the pendulum may be swinging too far. I urge leadership to reassess: How can we instill discipline and clarity of objectives without stifling creative problem-solving and cross-department collaboration? While I don’t believe this is the intent, the current framework may unintentionally suggest otherwise.

We’re glad you enjoyed our culture and the opportunity to work with some great people. In regards to future growth, our focus post-pandemic shifted from growth at the cost of profitability, to focus on the fundablements to allow us to continue being an enduring profitable organization. As a result, we’re excited about our new retail store (and future new locations), and the new products we’ve been introducing which are driving some great results.

We’re happy to see your five-star review. Regarding compensation, we'd like to give some context. If chasing the highest salary is the biggest driver for someone, there will always be organizations that pay more - and that’s okay. However, when looking holistically at everything Article offers, RRSP/ 401K matching, work flexibility, minimum 3 weeks paid vacation ( an additional week after 3 years of service), wellness days, extended benefits, opportunities to move into other departments, and access to leadership - we think it’s pretty darn good. That’s not to say salaries aren’t important too, so we benchmark and adjust yearly to the market. Also, all of our N. American jobs share the salary ranges in the job postings - we’d rather be transparent and upfront.
