Pros

Decent compensation, bonus, stock options Great benefits package that includes a lifestyle and fitness account Morning stretches encourage health and safety Ability to move up in the company if you are willing to move

Cons

Overtime is expected and never paid regardless of labour laws. Generally full of older employees (mostly 40 year olds and older) and a lot of grandfathered employees who are educationally under qualified. Bonuses are not based on how much overtime you work. You could work a million overtime hours but never feel compensated for. Not enough transparency from management. The job itself is written as top notch, but in reality is quite simple that possibly only a high school diploma could suffice.
