Pros

No pros with this company.

Cons

- The overall working environment is very difficult. There is a lot of, “finger pointing” resulting in a lot of work not getting done. Everyone believes it was someone else fault something was not completed or no one was working on it. The difficult thing is, this attitude is promoted from management most of the time. -The management is very young with no experience or guidance resulting in having no vision or drive for the company. Management has the mindset that, I am the boss and I call the shots. Most of the time devoted to the company by management is to drive drama or look to create problems so there is an excuse to use on why work is not getting done. A lot of time is spent dealing with internal issues due to this and not building the company. The company is kind of always in a, “scattered state” due to management. - You are not hired here for your expertise, you are hired to fall in line, even if this means failing on projects. Your ideas and opinions are not valued here, this is the type of company where credit is not given where credit is due. Team environment and working towards a common goal is not promoted well here. - The company does not look at employees as valuable assets. You are made very aware that you will be let go if management does not like you and they will find a way to get you out the door at all means necessary. If management sees you as a threat to them, you will be replaced. They are not looking to grow the company and see people succeed, they are more in fear for their jobs and lack the leadership trait in that sense. - Long hours are required every week. There is no work life balance. You are required to devote all your time of every day to the company. 60 hour work weeks are the minimum requirement with no end in sight or compensation given. - Pay is below average and raises are few and far between. - Working here will drain your life. I would not recommend working here no matter what stage you are at in your career. This company will sour your outlook on the industry.

Pros

The founder of the company projects a very progressive image that the rest of the company lags in.

Cons

Hamilton facility has developed a negative rap, mainly because of the leadership there having a bullying or narcissistic reputation with lots of micromanaging. A major problem is that as a "job shop", projects come and go and there is cyclical "boom and bust", so when things are slow everyone is working 8 hours, 9 to 10 when busy, and to make ends meet the new people get canned whenever there is a downturn. It doesn't matter how good you are or your dedication because when things are slow, the company contracts back to the same old people who were there for a decade. It isn't worth your time - don't depend on this place as a career. Poor work/ life balance too.

Pros

Paycheck has never bounced and is always on time, maybe not always correct

Cons

If you are an older person forget about it. The treatment is the worst I have ever experienced. The younger leads and supervisors will treat you like (very bad). Bullied and intimidation at its best.
