If you like dodging bullets ALL THE TIME, this company is ideal for you as they acquire other companies on a regular basis. If you enjoy seeing your coworkers laid off due to new company acquisitions, I highly suggest you work here. If you want to be told you can move to Canada or lose your job, this is the company for you. If you want to hear all about how transparent upper management is and then see nothing but muddy waters, I suggest you work here. If you like seeing MASS layoffs, including your manager and entire team, this is the place for you. If you like work parties, such as annual holiday parties, you can hear all about the luxurious parties held in Waterloo and Ottawa, while the budget for your office dwindles each year until it’s nothing, this is the place for you. If you enjoy knowing the company’s revenue exceeds billions of dollars yet are okay with also knowing they closed 60 offices (can you say “mass layoff?”), then this is the company for you. If you are a diligent, hardworking employee with anywhere from 17-25 years working for the same company and are fine without any rewards for loyalty, merit pay increases, but instead are forced to take 5% or 10% pay cuts, see your benefits decrease but pay more, then this is probably the ideal spot for you. If you welcome the phone call from a complete stranger that begins with “due to a company reorganization,” and don’t mind the layoff, this is your ideal company. And, finally, if you want a layoff the day before your divorce is final, this is most DEFINITELY the place you want to work.
