Pros

This company is going places, being at Quebec's first tech unicorn means you have huge opportunity, if you're willing to work really hard and deliver results. Results are the most important thing, no matter what is required. The opportunity to make mistakes and do new things is huge if you're self motivated and entrepreneurial. You get the chance to try things that most company's would never give to anyone. Great office culture with free food and booze, colleagues are great and want this place to succeed. Huge party's when we succeed.

Cons

Don't expect to be home by 6, this is high growth tech, it requires all hands on deck at all times, considered normal to work 12 hour days. Little to no training for staff. Low salary.
