Pros

Worst company I ever worked for. Passive aggressive culture very challenging to navigate through. Saw a lot of talented people leave because they couldn't function in the culture. I stayed for 4 years and that was more than enough.

Cons

Same as pros - there are few pros worth mentioning

Pros

- Opportunities to work on additional projects - Great building (near marketplace and good resto/bar) - Cafeteria with Tim Hortons (cheap breakfast and salads) - Quarterly meetings - Waterloo region is a great place to work and live

Cons

- Managers did not support me with education reimbursement (said taking CFA was not not relevant to my current job) - Felt very undervalued (salary wise)
