Pros

Great engineers. Honest, helpful, reliable, hardworking people. It was a pleasure to work with them. Tech stack - company is using latest products and frameworks, which helps to learn new technologies and get new skills. CEO (Ed) knows his job and has impressive plans to grow company portfolio. Good RRSP and ESPP.

Cons

Disclaimer: there is no uniform company culture. Environment highly depends on project manager, some teams are better than others. Work-life balance: long extra hours without compensation, constant pressure. No sick days. Mandatory Christmas shutdown. Some managers do not treat people equally and favor reporters. Managers remember all bugs (even small ones which were detected by QA before release and not delpoyed in production) made by engineers, but forget all contribution to the project and long extra-hours. Many project managers have no techincal knowledge.

Pros

Office location is the only benefit to me

Cons

Micro management, required to work extra hours to satisfy management, company culture not really friendly as its old time, management mind connected to the comunist era, informers really got valued.
