Feels like HOME!

Pros

Softchoice feels like a home away from home. Great events for everyone to network across different deparments (bowling. curling, Prom, karaoke, beer cart, poker...etc), dogs at work, supportive and collaborative environment regardless of what role you hold. It may be because I joined Softchoice at a later date in my career that I sincerely value the company, its people and what it stands for. Through reading some of the other reviews, it appears they come from individuals that haven't worked elsewhere - and have the "grass is always greener" symptom. This year alone I can think of 4 different people that have left and wanted to come back. It's a great place to build a career regardless if you are starting fresh out of school or have a few years of experience.

Cons

Dogs do bark at times...

Pros

For people who want to grow within the technology sector, there are few places better than Softchoice. Technology is going through unprecedented change and Softchoice is always at the forefront. Great learning for sales and marketing professionals in particular. On the marketing side we're constantly evolving, developing new programs and strategies. Highly stimulating work and great to work with a group of such bright, solution-oriented people. Also nice to do things where you see the impact of your efforts and what you created.

Cons

In marketing you need to bring ideas and lead the charge. The freedom to chart your course, build and execute strategies is very attractive to many people but can be daunting to some. Pace of work can be intense but seeing the fruits of your efforts is well worth the effort.

Pros

Amazing office space! Can bring your dog to work! Great philanthropic effort with "Softchoice Cares". Communication on the status of the company every month with our "Orange Nation Live" broadcast is much appreciated. Love the commitment to development that has been given through the many training opportunities that I have received.

Cons

Governance issues need some work and attention. While the company is not perfect, my observations are that it tries to do the right thing in all circumstances.
