Pros

* Company is growing, expanding the number of offices. * Flexible with work at home. * Progressive technology stack. * Many decent people work here.

Cons

* Floor plan is totally open and very distracting. * Work in IT is not very challenging. * Culture isn't great. Highly political, not collaborative and sometimes disrespectful. * Promotions and salary increases tend to be arbitrary. * No career advancement or coaching in IT. You're hired to do one thing and once that's done, there's nothing else for you. * Company is privately owned by two US-based private equity companies. DBRS will be sold in the near future and senior management seem to be doing the minimum to fluff up the company for the eventual sale in the meantime.
