Pros

Good technology & product delivered worldwide. OK Salary but make sure you negotiate up front and dont let them full you with the bonus as your performance control very small portion of that.

Cons

Sweatshop only focused on making each QTR quota. Fake opportunity for job moving - Process in place but from what I saw they dont really practiced. Fake employee engagement as any feedback not implemented If you dont agree keep you head down so you dont get fired.

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.
