Pros

Large company with many opportunities to network and know many industries. Company is based in Canada and seems to have good values and care for employees overall, including safety. Pay and work-life balance seem above average.

Cons

Difficult to break into new work within the company. Over anything else, your utilization rate is your driver. Even when you have work that you're waiting to be passed to you, if you cannot get started on it you have to take leave until you have enough work to fill your plate.

Pros

Very dedicated staff at the mid and lower levels. They do some amazing work and there are people who really care.

Cons

It's a public company and the bottom line is that it is all about profit and returns for the shareholders, no matter how hard they try to dress it as something else. You get put in a box with a company of this size and silos are hard to break down. Marketing leadership struggles to be anything more than yes people to operations and the C-Suite. Not a lot of women at the senior levels supporting other women in the company.

Pros

Great mentorship if you look around, but can become siloed

Cons

Corporate, so you might not feel like there is much career growth. Raises and compensation are a bit low for the industry.
