Pros

◦ Extremely friendly co-workers ◦ Great location and beautiful office space

Cons

◦ Salaries way below market ◦ Essentially no benefits or healthcare ◦ Expectation of unpaid overtime ◦ Chaotic work environment ◦ Process is touted as Agile but frequently reverts to Waterfall ◦ Rampant nepotism ◦ Company policy doesn't apply to relatives and "family friends" ◦ Ambiguous hierarchy ◦ Company org is extremely top heavy and tangled ◦ No transparency ◦ HR is non-existent ◦ Exceptionally high turnover

Pros

- Central location (Queen-Spadina) - Flexible hours - Big clients - Growing company - Company pays for Salesforce training

Cons

- Below-market salaries - Deadlines can be unrealistically short - No code repository/version control system, making collaboration difficult and risky: Devs store work locally, and email files to one another - Non-devs are allowed/expected to edit code. This riskiness is compounded by reusing buggy client HTML, and editing right in Salesforce (or other browser-based CMS)... exacerbating the version-control issue, and creating emergency overhaul jobs for the dev team
