      Pros

      - tons of free products - lots of amazing free snacks - friendly and welcoming corporate culture - everyone knows everyone - flat org. hierarchy - easy to approach anyone - owners are very supportive, encouraging, and welcoming - great transparency - personal use of company cellphone - professional training & development programs for employees - extensive healthcare coverage & benefits (one of the best) - great sense of teamwork and belonging - makes you feel like family - excellent equipment and facilities - lively lounge with unlimited cappuccino/ latte machine/ Starbucks coffee - WorkPerks incentives - giveaways for game tickets & other prizes

      Cons

      - zero privacy - low pay for salaried corporate employees in the long run in comparison to other CPGs - don't expect a high-skilled, ambitious/ career-driven professional to last more than 2-3 years - most employees are obligated to work well beyond their regular "9-5" hours without overtime pay - if you have a company cellphone, you are indirectly expected to be on-call 24/7 - low bonus incentives - low flexibility to work from home - not much work-life balance (even though they advertise it to you) - very low yearly salary increases - they will advertise internal company promotions, but if they don't want you to leave your position (even if it is for your growth), they will find an excuse to not promote you - lots of micro-management

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits. Flexible hybrid work.

      Cons

      Constant layoffs. I was laid off 7 months after starting, while on a business trip in a Kroger parking lot, with no explanation given. Layoff process was pathetic, no communication and had to threaten a lawyer to receive my severance payout. American politics are often discussed by Canadian upper management. Foul, unprofessional language is frequently used. Very unprofessional, unstable work environment. I would recommend looking anywhere else for employment.
