Why the Need for Crisis Communications is Not Just in Times of Crisis
Why BlackBerry?
The Time is Right
What we once did for smartphones is what we’re now doing for EoT – envisioning, enabling and securing new forms of communication that are connecting the business world in phenomenal new ways. We have the most complete and advanced end-to-send solutions to enable EoT, and our ideas lead the way in the hottest markets like cybersecurity, SaaS, neural networks and autonomous vehicles.
Legacy of Security
We underwent a profound business transformation to get into our current leadership position, but the one thing that will never change is the key ingredient on which we built our business more than 30 years ago: secure software. Legendarily secure software.
Targeted Innovation
In the next couple of years, the cost of cybercrime will rocket past $2 trillion USD. Who can enterprises trust to keep their assets and endpoints safe from attack? With over 39,000 patents and 80 certifications on our resume, BlackBerry has an unparalleled track record of security innovations that are now driving triple-digit adoption rates for our EoT software.
Companies do not undergo successful transformations without smart, dedicated, creative employees who are driven to succeed. That’s how we win awards like these:
We think an active lifestyle is one of the keys to success and happiness. That includes being active in the community.
BlackBerry is a proud and determined civic leader. Our employees are passionate, mobilized and empowered to actively participate in volunteer activities and environmentally friendly initiatives everywhere we live and work.

We have immense pride in our co-op and intern students. In you, we see the next amazing generation of BlackBerry®.

I have been working at BlackBerry full-time (More than a year)
Pros
People are wonderful, very welcoming. Very diverse set of skills and abilities within the organization. Never short from learning on a daily basis.
Cons
Work-life balance is very difficult. It may be unique to my role given I'm in security and monitoring. BlackBerry has a hard rule from working from home which has only gotten more extreme. Before it was casual and if you had a good reason, I'm thinking some people abused the freedom we had. Unfortunately this has stifled my family life and I feel like I'm always in the office.
Advice to Management
Discuss hours of operation, work from home capability again. Competing organizations are well advanced in comparison.
Application
I applied through college or university. The process took a week. I interviewed at BlackBerry (Waterloo, ON) in December 2015.
Interview
Phone Interview, as part of a co-op education process. Most of the interview was a casual conversation about my goals and education, with only one real technical question. Overall, it didn't seem like any of my previous interview experiences.
