Pros

Softchoice has a lot of positive characteristics like Great office environment, good location (Toronto), lots of great people, company performance is solid, strong reputation in industry, many opportunities for growth and advancement. Offices accross North America mean you get to meet a lot of interesting people from more than just your home town - great company events. Softchoice makes a real effort to train people in more than just "on the job" tactics.

Cons

Only a few people with a lot of tenure - not sure why people think you can't grow your career here. There are many examples of people who have done just that. Great company has it's downside - it feels like we are a target for poaching. Environment with lots of change - although it keeps us fresh, it can be challenging at times.

Pros

Softchoice has a lot of caring and positive people to work with. Management have solid values and sound business sense. The industry is fast moving and there are a lot of opportunities for learning, growth, and career advancement, whether within the company or with vendors and partners afterwards. This is a great place to work on skills and relationships within the technology marketplace.

Cons

The company used to have a stronger, more differentiated culture, and is slowly watering down the things that made it unique without replacing it with something equally unique (but different).
