Pros

Pay is ok. Benefits are slightly above average.

Cons

Never can keep up with demands. Filling out surveys are mandatory. Always going to meetings but they produce little. The upper management says they care but the treatment is contrary. Give you very little time to work on projects for your advance ment.

Pros

-Train shuttle provided, easy parking for car commuters -Urban location. Walking distance to downtown and train and shopping -some really nice and talented people who choice to stay loyal to the company despite a long history that could prove otherwise -benefits are average

Cons

-extremely poor management across the board who convince each other they are better and more deserving than others -poor attitude is rewarded -lack of respect among colleagues. Many people do not interact with each other based on long time political conflict -gaslighting culture with blame game instead of collaboration or accountability -low budget year on year and poor performance from business means less money for capital purchase and more pressure on scientists to perform fast and faster -very little room for upward growth with zero support or succession plan -no food option onsite
