Pros

Employees are helpful and friendly Middle management is strong Staff Engineers are very competent Compensation is above average for Canada

Cons

The CEO Nick, is simultaneously incompetent and arrogant. He is the imbodemant of a bad CEO. His leadership of this company if not challenged by those around him will cause the company to tank. Tech leadership is also very problematic. There is no agreemant on what is a priority, there is no understanding of what the team structure should be and the messaging is all over the place. If the market was good VTS would've struggled due to lack of strong leadership. But the market is not good the company is fast on its way to hit rock bottom

Pros

- Great work-life balance - You are surrounded by like-minded people who respect your professionalism and perspective on work-life balance. - The Company is currently going through huge transformation, so you will be joining at the right time; the worst part is over. - Tired of cut-throat, performance driven culture? great place to park yourself for few years for high cash comp and piece of mind. - If you are driven / want to make a change, your efforts will be highly valued here. - Great place for entry or mid-level as there will be ample opportunities for you to step up due to constant openings driven by high attrition and layoffs. If you line up well, you will have the fastest promotion tracks in your career. - Great place for people who can navigate corporate culture, read the room, and go with the "flow". your ability to ingratiate, perpetuate and be part of the core culture will be highly rewarded here. - Lots of exceptions, special one-time leeways are given stealthily and regularly. Just ask. - In short, the Company needs more driven, smart people to boost the performance. - You have a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to be part of great transformation and exit story.

Cons

- your experience and rewards may vary vastly depending on which department you join, but if you come in with the right mindset, that should not bother you - occasional (but periodic and predictable) layoffs. You will hear rumble and management does a good job of not hiding it
