Tucows Benefits FAQ

Pros

They offer good company benefit

Cons

They have less references, less interactive. There are some T2 members, but basically, you need to do self-study before submitting the problem, otherwise, they will simply return with this answer. " Have you do this? or do that?"

Advice to Management

Hm. I honestly disappointed with saying "Sorry about that you are no longer..." I have heard only one sentence and have been fired even if I have spent 5 years with them. They did not explain the reason at all. I understand maybe something was not going well, but one of manager should explain the reason.

Pros

Time off almost 5 weeks between vacation and personal time.

Cons

Lower pay compared to other companies

Advice to Management

Listen to the guys on the ground. Sometimes the dollar is not worth saving.

Pros

Health and lifestyle benefits were really the only great things about working here

Cons

There is zero progression so if you want to just work a menial job then this is for you.

Advice to Management

Review goals with employees and ensure that they do not remain stagnant.

Pros

Benefits galore. Free meals by the volunteer committee.

Cons

Avoid this company at all costs. I worked at Tucows for just over two years. I had an impeccable attendance record and had great customer service feedback. I gave critical feedback in a positive light to help improve the working environment. Merit is simply not a factor at Tucows. You have to be a manager's pet to get somewhere. The huge efforts are largely ignored. Management only gives worthless mass emails to congratulate the group on a whole. Empty and meaningless.

Advice to Management

Management raised the salary for new employees but left the old ones out in the cold. They had managers select favourites to move over to another division with the pay increase. Those that were not chosen got stuck with the same salary of 3k less than the new recruits. A complete disgrace and why I recommend that no one work here. Ross Rader is an invisible executive of human resources. He doesn't even show up for the company Christmas parties (2017 and 2018).

Pros

Free lunches, donuts and full benefits

Cons

Inexperienced and ineffectual management Unfair salary practices Zero chance of advancement Elliot Noss is an arrogant, narcissistic, piece of work who has a small cult that kisses his rump. Ross Nader is a sniveling coward who hides behind his mistakes. These two need to be avoided at all costs!

Advice to Management

Just admit that all decisions are made at the top and you are just wasting time dealing with employees one on one.
