Canada's best place to work?

Pros

Student Benefits, reasonable salary, semi flexible working schedule, local management is on the ball

Cons

Almost continuous company acquisitions which result in the restructuring of the Customer Support system at least once a year. Boasts as Canada's best place to work, sending out employee reviews of the company then a week later making dramatic company wide lay-off's and citing reasons such as Consolidating of Resources as their reason yet off-shoring to the Philippines where no technical assists existed. Little to no regard to current employees, more interested in making headway and looking good at buying new companies then seriously developing non-buggy software.

Pros

Work from home Flexibility after COVID Very Nice Colleagues to work with

Cons

Micromanagement from the CEO on every level 401(K) match at just over 2% (just increased by .5% recently, used to be 1.5%) Health benefits are miserable where the company almost forces you to the high deductible plan Vacation time is no longer based on years of service and cannot be rolled over (except in CA) Raises are miniscule and promotions are far in between, there is some obvious bias there
