Pros

The culture is great. Constant fun times, free lunches, video games, music, retreats, you name it! Additionally, since it is a contracting firm, constant new clients means constant new projects which is always interesting and exciting.

Cons

Possibility of working on a project off site at less fun offices.

Pros

- You'll work on a lot of v1's for high profile clients; great for a new graduates. - Annual ski trip, subsidized device plan, monthly game nights, beer keg, foosball and ping pong tables, and company sports teams. - Company is gaining momentum with Deloitte partnership, Brainstation acquisition, and a new coffee shop/co-working space. - Employees are fantastic, some of the best people I've worked with. Management has an eye for well-rounded individuals.

Cons

- Attention of management on the technology side is divided between Toronto and Costa Rica. Employees typically aren't aware of the open-door policy to speak to management with most feeling intimidated. Employees in the past have been fired for strongly expressing their concerns. No HR. - Run as an old boy's club (bro culture). Favouritism is rampant, be prepared to "fooz and booze"and beer pong for a promotion. - Roles are glorified, most architects there are intermediate-senior developers. I've witnessed poor technical implementations by an architect simply to avoid work. - No processes for career development, the general vibe of employees that are still there is that "they're comfortable" and okay with the status quo. If you want to hone your skills and master your craft, it will have to be on your own time.

Pros

Lots of beer. Also this place is more frontend-friendly. If you want to do more css and *some* frontend javascript frameworks, this place is good for it.

Cons

-Obvious favoritism leading to some people taking on roles they're unqualified for (e.g. junior devs managing projects from the top down; junior devs managing other junior devs) -Poor development workflows. Pigs will fly before anyone does a code review. -Lots or professional irresponsibility and toxicity all around, especially from management. They'll hire anyone who knows how to turn on a computer. There are devs there that have no real interest in software but are there anyways (yes, including devs that manage other devs). They'll also act rude to developers who like their job. Basically, if you want to get better as a developer and improve your skills, steer clear of this company.
