Pros

Easy going environment, great learning environment for Mechanical Engineers. Friendly people, insurance benefits and 401k are competitive, shut down around Christmas. electrification work is exciting,

Cons

minimal increases each year unless you're in the good old boys group and/or devote your life to the company (60 hour weeks), lack of vacation time, no site wide goals or direction, siloed worked, no opportunity for advancement, management doesn't know what's going on

Pros

Some of the people are great

Cons

Some have too much authority and power. Figuring out who your manager is and who actually has a say in your quality of work is confusing. Was treated horrible by a high strung, OCD peer who has been there too long and given way to much authority when he isn't even a manager.

Pros

Seeing to the top is easy. After a reasonable amount of experience you are allowed opportunities to work directly with upper management provided you are competent in your abilities. In last few years the company has taken steps to improve communication that has been an issue in the past.

Cons

The flat hierarchy, though beneficial to keeping closeness with management, also appears to muddy the path to promotion. The pay may not be comparable to competitors in the market, but considering Guelph vs. near-Toronto with respect to living costs it isn't that far off.
