Pros

If you are a dog owner, you can bring your dog to work. If you are teenage-like with very little in your brain besides sales, you might have some fun.

Cons

Very raw and immature environment. Employees don't make a real effort to get to know a new person and make them feel valued, and the fact that many people in Canada report to managers and directors in the US is a real drag. The US has a very different corporate culture. People there don't care about getting to know their direct reports and appreciate them in a holistic manner, both as employees of the company and as individuals, with talents outside works, etc. Softchoice doesn't care. If you're not a sales person who doesn't know anything else but tech and money, don't bother applying to work at Softchoice. And the location and building in Toronto suck.

Good... IF you're in sales

Pros

Great culture, cool people, very casual, RRSP "matching" (3%), SunLife benefits

Cons

It's a gut-driven sales culture, so if you're not gregarious or engaging it can be tough to get people bought in to good ideas. There's a policy that your salary can't increase by more than 10% at a time (so, if you started at an entry level position, good luck getting the growth you expect).
