Pros

Great people and ability to learn a lot

Cons

They address employees as "family" but the moment that the profit target is not met they make them redundant. There are always talks about layoffs that is becoming tiring.

Pros

Great boss, great team, cool technology, cool products, good work-life balance, flexible hours, flexible time off

Cons

Barely adequate health and dental insurance benefits (Canada Life is pretty terrible...) Corporate structure isn't ideal, too many decisions made abroad Pay raises were laughable (especially considering record inflation) and bonuses were cheap and minimal Generally, corporate governance was stingy and distant Didn't trust them, didn't feel empowered by them Company went private after being purchased by a private equity firm that swore up and down there would be no employment changes and then proceeded to lay 100s of people off two weeks before Christmas
