Pros

Not much honestly. Only worth it if you're involved with audiology or if you're looking for healthcare experience (Abott has an office in that area).

Cons

- Garbage pay that is not proportionate with the work that is required. They had one person doing 3 different jobs in Marketing! Additionally, the marketing team is composed of recent Indian and Pakistani immigrants (i.e. cheap labor). - Hilariously unorganized structure in Canada. The general manager is a Mexican national who believes that opening retail locations in economically destitute provinces (i.e. Newfoundland) is a logical idea. The Canadian marketing director is a Dutch national who lives in Boston (literally no relationship to the Canadian market). The finance head doesn't have a CPA. - Weak business model. Heavily discounting products (+60%) every single month. - The "office" is a storage closet in the middle of a forest in Mississauga. The HR team was seriously considering mandating a return-to-office schedule involving a storge closet. - Italian HQ doesn't care about Canada. It is an accessory to the premium USA product. - HR could be inept and confrontational at times. Job responsibilities were not clearly communicated and my job title was even misspelled!

Pros

Proactivity is rewarded. Career development is expanding. Lots of great, compassionate people here and there is a authentic sense of community. No company is perfect but I have seen a growth in employee listening, innovation and career opportunities since I joined 2.5 years ago. Strong company mission of "empowering people to rediscover the emotions of sound"

Cons

As any retail business, sales is the dominant priority here. It takes considerable effort to keep PEOPLE at the forefront. Some managers and leaders do this better than others.
