Pros

CAE has been an incredibly supportive place to build a career. Leaders genuinely invest in your development, and there’s a strong culture of learning, collaboration, and trust. I’ve always felt empowered to bring ideas forward and take on new challenges. The company cares about its people, provides flexibility when it matters, and creates an environment where you can grow personally and professionally. Proud to be part of this organization.

Cons

The company is evolving fast, which is good—but change can be emotionally challenging for teams navigating uncertainty.

Pros

Very flexible, lots of work life balance, though I'm sure this varied by department. I was in HR.

Cons

I didn't mind being laid off, but it was extremely abrupt and impersonal, which was jarring after such a warm culture while working there.
