Pros

Depending on the team, can get away with coasting as long as you "look" like you're doing work Snacks Yaletown location

Cons

lack of alignment at all levels hesitates to stand out from the crowd- takes too long to make decisions Technical debt is a huge mess- Development & Product teams aren't on same page Lack of strategy for the future of the company - it's a big mess Is all talk- says one thing and doesn't deliver Feel defeated working here- looking for new work not a modern organization

Pros

* Great Environment and work culture * Awesome people to work with, very professional and friendly * Company is investing in design * Company is growing which is good for career * Opportunity for self growth (option to go to conferences or take courses) *Exciting projects and new challenges every quarter, no time to get bored * Design has a voice/opinion * Team/ company hangouts * Events for team bonding

Cons

* Workloads are intense sometimes ( this is getting better as we are hiring more designers) * Last minute priority changes * Not too many people cared about UX ( this is also improving ) * Sometimes there’s not enough time for usability testing and products are getting shipped without UX validation * Collaboration wasn’t a thing about year ago (but things getting better now)

Pros

- The people are amazing to work with and everyone I've talked to is very open to new ideas - Good work/life balance - Shift towards data-based decisions and investing in user research - Input is valued no matter your title - Current organizational changes are promising for creating career paths and opportunity to advance in your career - Never is a boring day because there's lots to work on!

Cons

- Last minute priority switching - Not enough time to really dive deep into long running issues on the product - Lots of tech debt, which means things are done minimally and shipped out without having a solid plan on how to continually upkeep and innovate - Benefits are standard
