Softchoice reviews

Downright abuse of reps - work life balance doesnt exist in this role. Hoo rah type of culture, not for everybody. Base salary is more than $15,000 under industry standard. Values reps who are willing to be overworked for a 'chance' at a raise every 6 months. Those raises rarely come, the first two raises together still leave you with a base salary well below the industry standard. claims to value its employees, puts their people first - first to boot them out the door when talk of raises are brought up. Long story short, their values are not in line with the company's practice. Anyone in sales, I would stay away. Great starter job, but get your experience and RUN. they are more than happy to pay you under $50k a year until you get offers for 80-100k, realize your worth and ask for a raise. Then, they'll most likely pull every customer complaint they can find from the beginning of time (literally, my first week in role) and use those as grounds to fire you without cause before you have the chance to resign. That, or offer you a pat on the back and tell you to keep your head down.

The management is not trustworthy - they promised they not fire anyone during the pandemic and they still fired a bunch of people The company went public without telling any employees. Everyone was flabbergasted The "family" paradigm is used throughout. Managers will try to present themselves as your "fathers" so that you work free overtime Birch Hill, the hedge fund that owned Softchoice for 8 years before they sold it back on TSX, is a very opaque, un-transparent company that makes decisions without consulting anybody, especially not the employees It is pretty much impossible to rise in the company unless you are in Sales
