Pros

Pay set against the market for your position annually Very fast growth and it is expected that it continues, be prepared to keep up Really great people

Cons

A lot of focus and attention to the bottom line can overshadow the softer benefits, no RRSP and mediocre PTO, and no options for working remotely/ flexitime (aside from Covid mandated) Mostly non existent contribution to culture from the executive level, most don’t show their faces or lend their voices to much outside of a work context. Nothing by the way of a stance on any social issues - no policies for diversity, representation, inclusion, impact on the environment, etc. It’s all business.

Thank you for taking the time to share your comments. We are definitely going through fast growth, and we agree that we have really great people! As you have noticed, we review our total compensation strategy a few times a year using multiple points of industry data and adjust accordingly. In addition to our flexible benefits program and three weeks vacation to start, at the beginning of 2020 the decision was made to offer stock options instead of RRSPs - in alignment to one of our guiding principles - Ownership Mindset. We are considering RRSP matching in the future as we continue to evolve our total compensation offerings. COVID has provided us with tremendous learnings on how we can effectively work together remotely, and we will be incorporating a remote work policy post-COVID. In regards to our stance on social issues, this is an important topic, and starting in 2021 we will be more intentional in how we communicate our position throughout the company. In the spirit of one of our other guiding principles - Win Together- we truly value feedback and encourage open and honest dialogue. We welcome you to reach out to hr@article.com anytime if you have additional feedback. Brad Recruitment Manager
