Pros

Very large and stable company that is always growing. Revenue is always going up which provides more stability. Good teams to work with, but I have not been there long or worked with many people in the company as of now.

Cons

Very large clunky company that takes a long time for things to happen. Since I am going from a recent acquisition, it seems policies and procedures are changing constantly and little communication is made.

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.
