Pros

Great atmosphere and totally geared to support career advancement. Lots of perks and benefits. Perfect place to start career straight out of college/Uni.

Cons

Not enough money compared to other companies doing the same thing. Everything is geared to push people up (or out), so if you find the right job/level you are happy with you're out of luck because management will not respect you.

Move to privatization may be a good thing

Pros

Nice people, social company with lots of good activity with charities Lots of communication to employees like all-in-company calls and company events Good Company with strong financial results and a solid reputation We were just bought by a private equity firm and from what I can see, I think that the move to privatization will allow the management team to make long term investments and allow the employees some time to digest and execute on these investments before rushing off to the next idea. This may help people settle in, focus on what they need to do and stay longer. We heard this week that employees will have the chance to invest in the company. I want to know more details...but this sounds like it could be a great opportunity and one that few other companies can offer.

Cons

Lots of change...the pace can be very hectic Work-life balance seems good for some roles and bad for others.

Pros

Softchoice hires great people that fit well in to the work hard play hard culture. You need to prove you can handle the work load, quotas and time management. If you're doing what you need to be doing then you'll do well, if you're not willing or able to perform then you won't...pretty simple. It's a fun culture of experienced and inexperienced people who are all learning from each other and taking care of each other. The dogs in the office is a plus! Softchoice tends to hire from with in so there are lots of opportunities if you're successful in your current role.

Cons

Growth targets are aggressive YOY
