Pros

Good brand on resume, central location in downtown Toronto, good events put on ever so often.

Cons

Everyone backstabs everyone else, while nice people are eaten alive. Hours are absolutely insane, and the pay is not great to start with. Performance reviews are pointless because the ratings are decided behind closed doors by management before a discussion even starts to take place with the employee, so how is that fair or 360. All initiatives are recycled every few years, and are a waste of time.

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
