Pros
Solid mortgage expertise Well connected to the industry Backed by an established corporation Full set of Benefits, including parental leave top-up, health and lifestyle speeding accounts Education budget and study days Effective communication with a weekly all-hands Social events; online and in-person Flexible working hours Competitive salaries Simple Infrastructure; full on AWS
Cons
it's impossible to review a company as a whole, for some teams and people these don't apply -- Small business, not a startup; the vision is to serve Canada but the focus is on the next opportunity Failures are treated as successes; this is a symptom of drift to low performance where people is not held accountable Obsessed with competition Lack of process ensures that promotion and retention are driven by biases Sales-led; growth if driven by sales Command & Control management style Fixed mindset; avoid failures, ignores criticism, feels threatened by others' success Treats market as a zero-sum game Inexperienced leadership Unclear expectations
