Softchoice reviews

Softchoice, unfortunately, suffers from its own size. It's "family" like environment breaks down because of the focus put on task completion and speed rather than quality of work. Too many times I've been told "this isn't my job," or "supported" by a support team with inaccurate or incomplete information.

Way too political at that place. Nepotism is rampant. Salaries are a joke. High school pecking order. I'm sure that the trips to Africa are only for a select few. You have to leave that place after a couple of years of gaining experience. Thats precisely what the company founders wanted when SCC came into being in 1989 and its what they still want now. One day you're getting awards and then one day you're escorted off of the premises because of "restructuring". Rather than giving you a cost of living increase each year (they've now frozen salaries) they want you to leave and then replace you with a new university grad for a salary lower than yours. There are people who have stayed at that place so long that if ever they get laid off, they'll have a nervous breakdown because its the only environment they've ever known. They won't rebound well.
