Good place to work. Friendly people, good benefits. Generally seem to want to hire from within. Overall , I'll give it a three

Cons

Grow by acquisition. Marketing is lacking and thus name recognition is almost nonexistent. Biggest company people have never heard of.

Pros

While they claim to be "pro-employee" they are very much pro-Canadian employee. As long as you are a Canadian, your job should be safe. And US based role is in jeopardy.

Cons

Laying off all Americans. I do not see relevant data on location based statistics for the last 4 rounds of layoffs. The bulk of the "trimming" has been based in US. This is cost savings. Additionally, they post US based jobs for 24 hours then pull those and post H1B notifications that they could not find equivalent US resources and need to outsource for cheaper money.
