Pros
The people you work day-to-day with are fantastic. The company participates in several community programs like the Ride for Heart, Engineers Without Borders, Road Hockey to Conquer Cancer, and family sponsoring.
Cons
As a non-shareholder, your highest priority is to secure billable hours at all costs. The company has been downsizing heavily for several years due to its inability to secure contracts. Transparency is low. Quarterly townhall meetings to present positive company outlooks are considered non-billable. In-house training is non-billable. Standard beginning vacation allotment is 15 days increasing to the upper limit of 20 days after 5 years of service. The company shuts down for 7 unpaid business days over the Christmas break. You're encouraged to apply your vacation time or any accrued approved banked overtime to this period. Monetary compensation is lower than industry averages in the GTA.
